Stain

I appreciate a compliment as much as the next person.

Perhaps even more than the average person,

maybe two average people on an average.

Praise makes me sing, blush in pleasured tones

warming my neck, tingling my toes.

Appreciation is good, it isn't greed

to crave encouragement and to know

someone likes you the way you are

Today.

Not yesterday, not when the morning breaks

but right at this very moment,

today. Now.

Nice poem! I'm really sorry if I don't have much to say as I'm not that much of a poet or a writer. But I hope you'd be able to accept the praise.
