Your Smile
wide and welcoming as a gentle river
on a summer day
warm and sunny as a July morning
spontaneous as a kitten
dimpling your cheeks as with a clothespin
blessing when shown
the kids or the dogs or the phone
rejoicing my heart that you're mine
a lamp when turned my way to shine
burns me with gladness to belong to you
