A Villager on the Planet of her Life

.
I am but a simple villager on the planet of her life

I live by the stream of her unabashed smile

The stream wanes and fills its soft banks everyday
but I am not a slave to this stream's ebb and flow

When the stream of her smile is full I feel blessed
but when it is not I do not relent
I only bend a little further to get my daily drink
before walking upstream to see
whatever may be blocking that smooth outpouring
of her lovely joy
