Smile Poem by Katie Bunge

A young girl and a young boy
Both standing waiting for the sound of the click
They are in true love, his hand around her waist and she never wants him to let go
Her smile so bright, it could light up the whole world
He looks at her with wanting glares
His eyes tell people, the girl is his and no one else’s
A woman told them to stand there and what for her instruction
She went over to camera and said
“Smile”
A flash of light, blinded them both
And then another
Until they got it right
The women walked away and after the pictures were taken
The young boy looked at the young girl
And just smiled
