60. A Smile is Charity
She gave a smile to the wind
to dust like pretty little streams of pollen
on those dried-out flowers
thirsty for a breeze
Because they needed a tender little kiss
that softened their sours
and the smile more gentle than the unforgiving sun
staring down from the high-cast sky
Because she was closer to earth
and could reach their sad little faces
Even if
they often pretended to shield themselves
from the glow.
