Denis Bruce Poet Kimo

Cracks In the Facade

Bright ,cheerful,jovial is his visage
You sense a fragile sadness
Belied by his soft smile

In  quieter mood his face relaxes
Worry lines fragment his calm
Tears threaten like raindrops

The pent up  dam now  bursts,his bulwark gone
Broken,beaten and bereft
A sad shell of a man
