~'Pon a Tear and a Smile~

Bring me your sad heart,
bring me your joys of plenty;
for a tear and a smile
I impart my tender heart.
~*~
A joy 'tis your countenance,
tho melancholy and despair
sings sweet 'pon the wind
and dyes among the grass.
~*~
For a tear and a smile,
I'll live to catch her song,
and dance amid the sway
to tend my clad soul.
~*~
O' her lilting throng!
Your smile lain overt
dancing in the wind,
this guile in disguise....
~*~
'Pon a tear and a smile~

    a good piece penned that touches on the old style language, a nice soft flow that gives a gentles atmosphere out to the reader.

    very classic style in language an old english or colonial style, very nicely done; words are big in impact but open and simple word choices...sweeping meanings yet very understandable. Thank you for this fine entry into the contest and best of luck in the judging...PK
