There are other smiles in the world

but when I see them,  I don't smile back 

 

There are other songs on the radio,

they are the ones I listen to; the ones I can tolerate

 

There are other fingertips, other lips, other pillows

I have known a few

 

On cloudless days 

The sun shines on countless souls

 

When it rains,  

I can think of only one 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 


Title: Czech proverb-  Loosely-  "the sun does not shine for one flower"
