Notes About The Poem

     

You Smiled

I saw something today I've not seen for a while; it didn't last long, but nonetheless, it was a smile. Alzheimer's had hidden that part of you from me, and yet, suddenly, you smiled, and I got to see. And I want to believe it was deliberate, for the meaning behind that smile seemed explicate.
