Arthur Vaso Poet Light Verse

Notes About The Poem

Smiles

I can’t smile without you
I miss the days long ago
We held hands
A soft kiss on the cheek was udder bliss
Nothing in life seemed amiss

Now you have long gone
Six feet under the ground
That day is embedded in stone
You and your suitcase, gonna leave me alone

I bound you tight
Pulling hair from my head
As I chained sawed you dead
Blood in my chalice, I drank

Lustfully I carved you into dinner
Lamb chops in sauce so sweet
Your family loved the meal
If they only knew
They might have stayed thinner

My roses sing every spring
Happily devouring your rotten bones
Leaving me was evil you see
Never the less, tiss I who smiles

I smile at the coffee shop
I smile more as the butcher mops
I am not dark, no not at all
My darkest, I smile for all to see
Cause you have all but gone!

Happy days are here again!!!!!
