Okay, please keep an open mind, coz I am definitely no poet. Really. I wrote this one night and thought I might put it up to see what people think, just out of curiosity. It is probably the only poem I will write in my life! Please give me feedback!


One day

as I walk in the summer sunshine

I am handed a gift by a stranger

carefully wrapped

intimate

Purely for me.

I treasure it for a moment

then

return it

Amazed

that such a tiny thing as a smile

can make me happy to be

alive.
