Her Smile

her head rests softly
on my chest with such grace
with warmth from her smile

Beautiful, Joseph. A moment in time that adds endless moments to our lives. The 'grace',the 'warmth' and that 'smile' that leaves an imprint on your soul. So nice, Joseph. :) Wishing the best to you! God bless you and yours..love to you, Mikki
