Smile

A true smile Born within the heart A beautiful place For a smile to start As it reaches your eyes This gorgeous surprise Twinkles and sparkles Your eyes come alive And when your lips begin to part Your precious smile Straight from your heart Can make their day A kinder place And put a smile Upon their face And so before their day does end A million smiles Your smile did send Written 10th October 2019 Contest Strand Select Sponsor Brian Strand 2ND PLACE
