I Am More

I am more than what you see,
 look a little deeper, you'll find me.
A smile or a frown
 roots of what we each put down.
Pass me as you walk by
 shopping, driving, ever on the fly.
Life's too short you know
 and you may  miss the grandest show.
See my face, catch my smile
 I bear the innocence of a child.
Bent by time and age
 there is still much on this life's page.
I am more than what you see
 open your eyes, it's me.

I see the beauty in what I read, and would you believe? The validation code is SHE! Strange coincidences in life. Write on DM, your words smile! Mick
