Smiles

Though oft times we do not see Every day contains a smile Each one is a fragile gem Sorrows grip on us revile Even if for just a while Welcomed by the eyes that see Happiness it can't defile This precious gift from you to me Originally written for "HUTAIN THIS ONE" contest.

Wonderfully worded a sweetest feeling of inner sense in last two lines....'Happiness it.......to me'. Loved and enjoyed both, bl
