Mimic

Here with a smile
Love sets fine style
Just for a while


Now words cast rhymes
With motive mimes
That tells on time


Lift words at last
Beyond mere cast
To work not fast


Feel that fond feel
Of words that heal
To mimic thrill


Watch movement dash
In abrupt flash
Of petty dash


If you must guess 
Say more with less
As words can bless


Time mellows space
In a quick trace
Of ace in place


Watch if you must
For mad distrust
To seed more rust


Joy anchors cheer
To purge all fear
Now crystal clear


It's never late
To know how fate
Can clean the slate


Live your best thrill
In fond goodwill
In silence still
