A Derelict’s Smile

Sitting on the floor, she can idle away hours

With nothing else to share, she barters smiles

I wonder what it is that makes those lips curve

In the world we occupy, free smiles are rare

Maybe she smirks at her misery

Or maybe it is her most impressive wear

Though it doesn’t cost anything , for us

the moments that occasion it are precious

Are they ?
