Poignant

Appeal to gain in simple grace:
Plant then a smile to wear each hurt,
Obvious the pain that moulds your face;
Ink script that styles such earthly dirt,
Glimpse in a sigh the weary world;
Now moments bring the codes that sketch,
Aim for grand highs that come to swirl;
Note ample flings in clash and patch,
Thrill senses wild that flood and scheme.
Be true to cheer with wit that puns,
Embrace the child that holds fond dream;
Indulge joy here where pain funds run,
Nurture sure poise that loves each day,
Grand succinct voice fills happy way.
