Princess Smiling Face
by mojo
Walking in the forest,
the wind upon my face,
i saw something in the distance
moving with unimaginable grace
Drifting from tree to tree,
her feet never touching the ground,
i stood back in amazement
from the beauty that i had found
As i inched in closer
to get a better view,
she dissappeared into the distance,
not to be seen for a year or two
I plundered on aimlessly
hoping to find this angelic marvel
her dancing silk hair
and eyes of pure marble
But much to my chagrin,
i fell far short of quest
of finding that fleeting angel,
the one that never rests...
...and then one day,
on nothing more than a whim,
i returned to the spot
where she had been
Much to my delight,
darting out from behind a tree
came the heavenly miracle,
the one who had so overtaken me
As we came closer,
closing at a delicate pace,
i finally was able to put my arms around
Princess Smiling Face
