Ode To a Woman

See that familiar form: Happy joy strikes a norm, Warm refuge from life's storms. Sense a fond smile now squeeze: Heart flutters in the breeze, Kind comfort in harsh sneeze. Delight frames a fond face: Beauty in warm embrace, Warm eyes that hurl kind grace. Sure poise of charming voice: Calm touch that cancels noise, Silent resolve floods choice. Bright sparkling eyes tell all: Heed the lovely sans gall, Wise beyond life's stern call. You wear a certain glow: Your heart speaks truth you show, A touch that helps us know. You mother well our days: Touch of purpose that stays, The path upon the way. What is man without you? You bring meaning that woos, Love lives in all you do. Leon Enriquez 07 March 2016 Singapore
