Smile Catcher

Smile Catcher by Anne Steward sums up the essence of 'goodness' behind the simple smile. Her poem makes me want to smile, and that's why I've included it here. (As a matter of interest, Anne is a member of my own local writing group (Holmfirth, Yorkshire.)

Smile Catcher- what Anne Steward has to say...

I am alone,
my family gone.
Work left behind.
with the years.
I smile.
I catch smiles.
That's my job.
Full time now.
My smile
is for free.
Smiles returned,
my wages.
I catch the bus
to town
and hunt for smiles
in teaming streets
and steamy cafes.
I cast smiles wide.
and reel in my catch
to serve them up
for comfort in the night
when I'm alone.
