Newport Girl
by
Wesley A. Storer
When that bright smile
Lightest brightest and best
Breathed into your soul
Sweeter than a rose
Setting your heart aglow
It seemed like from paradise
Its sending was composed
Neath skies of ocean blue
And deep translucent hue
Clouds of velvet satin
Soothed her charming youth
Dancing willow trees
In the honey bee breeze
Set her mind at ease
Like flowering tides
Of crystal misting rhymes
And rainbow prism beams
Wreathed in emerald green
Vermillioned wraithed layers
God's poem of dawning delight
Through dewey lilac leaves
Bequeathed their sacred bond
Their soft affections fond
As that little girl gleamed
Her smile one day their way
They say it happened then
A smile God's grace did lend
To melt the hearts of men
With a smile of living gems
