a poem about my sad unsmiling face and spirit

  I  look  at  my picture  on the mantelpiece

                                  And  wonder  if ever

            I  would regain that gamin smile

                That  drew the world to me

            And expressed the simple

        Contentment of my heart

                In  years gone by
