"Promise me you'll always remember, you're braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think." ~ A.A. Milne


Kind of like

the light from street lamps catching soft snow when I walk to my car

the cloudy olive oil and balsamic swirl you dip your pizza into

the dulled fall leaves still here in December as we ski

that bright smile that made me shield my eyes when I saw you under the lights, standing with your friends at the football game.

Maybe

the halo of frizz that crowned my head on that summer day, feet dragging in the sand

the hot sweat running while we run, hot pavement 

or the reflection of the water in my eyes reflected in yours and reflected in mine and reflected in yours.

It is a good poem, I personally am having trouble relating to it so it's just not for me but good work!
