.
walking to the corner store
I saw a girl
she smiled at me
I felt good
she was pretty

a sweet simple gesture
high-lighting a day

you've heard the expression
"high on life"
think I've discovered
the active ingredient
...a sweet simple gesture

don't bogart the buzz
pass it around
share

I hope "simple" isn't seen

I hope "simple" isn't seen simply as fluff....fluff may be simple, not all that is simple is fluff....and if this is perceived as too fluffy, that's ok . I have many guilty fluffy pleasures myself, and though I may be wrong, I think most people do.

I thank you for not dismissing this out of hand because of the fluff factor.

"fluffle on, merry poets,
we are all multi- dimensional
don't keep secret
what we already know"

hi

simple is a good thing in this instance. To have gone any other way would have lessened the honesty of the moment................stan
