Mark Anthony Bartolo Poet Sonnet

I Smiled Ct

I smiled when I’ve gone for a drink
Sitting on a couch for some tunes
I smiled when I’d no time to think
Because of last-minute fortunes

Pity I had no time to greet
The gleaming bright light on your teeth
My sight was never left behind
By the guest with her child in mind

I smiled when you’ve watched me perform
I smiled when you’ve killed these perils 
I smiled when you’ve read my profile
I smiled when you’ve kept me in peace

Therefore, I have no dark regrets
Of playing those grateful poets

Thanks for entering my contest and congratulations on your placement.
