Given hope- <br />like brightly wrapped <br />ribbons on boxes <br />holding unknown <br />surprises. <br />Sharing love- <br />like smiles spreading <br />from faces of strangers <br />opening secrets <br />unshared. <br />Stealing kisses- <br />behind walls erected <br />by battered minds <br />withdrawn. <br />Revealing all- <br />in one simple sentence <br />love once hidden <br />becomes openly <br />surrendered. <br /> <br />8/5/08<br /><br />Viola Grey<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/gift-16/
