Poetry: Florida Girl

Her laugh spreads
like a contagion
and her voice
could shatter hearts.

She smiles
like the sun rising
and she jokes
like the great comedians.

When she is pensive,
she paints.
When she is sad,
she turns for comfort.

I offer what I can,
praying I can
give enough, only
my best is never enough.

She interests me deeply
and talking to her is amazing.
She is intelligence and insight,
beauty and humor,
rolled into one.

She is something special
and she does not realize it.
She deserves the universe
when I can only give her my self.
