the boy across the room
who sits and stares.
with smilimg eyes and a playful air
across from him sits a lady so fair
with golden silk for hairshe smiles at him and he smiles back
i feel miles and miles away from that boy
but just as surly that he smiles,i find i can simle too.
and one day i find myself grinning back at my own special boy with a look in his eye
