Sarah's Smile

You can hear it if you closely listen
That's the beat of my heart missing
What I wouldn't give right now
For a glimpse of Sarah's smile

So inviting, so wide open
Where there's beauty in the knowing
Wonder of the child
Inside of Sarah's smile 

Corners turned up in perfection
Leaves no room or need for guessing
As you soon find out 
Inside of  Sarah's smile 

Bringing life to clarity 
Giving them away for free
Love the only sound
Inside of Sarah's smile 

There is laughter in the making
No time that is ever wasted
What I wouldn't give right now
For a glimpse of Sarah's smile


Just thinking of my beautiful daughters smile.
