Kim Rodrigues Poet Verse

Notes About The Poem

Sweet Honesty

Smile on the face or innocence on the face
              is as attractive as beauty on the face.

—Amit Kalantri

Sweet Honesty

Lily of the valley,
   rose and cedarwood.
Flowing,
   romantic,
        sweetly bells of white snow.
Ruffled scent
   — slow tickle to the nose.
Woodsy,
    warm bouquet
stirs the pulse of an innocent Eve
    her fresh skin,
       sunswept hair.
Budding honey bees need no patchouli seduction.
