SMILING FACES IN A VASE
Smiling faces in a vase
I smile whenever I see one
Like puppets on a string
such joy and laughter
their smile doth bring
I feel that any moment
they will burst into a song
Whenever they are here
there is singing all day long
I gaze at them for hours
Unlike any other flowers
I sometimes hear their giggles
and their gentle chitter chatter
Whether growing in the soil
or standing tall inside a vase
~ Sunflowers ~
somehow make me feel
as if I’m not alone
as if I really matter
When they
are here
at home
with me
those
smiling faces
full of love
melt my heart
make me smile
spreading love
here all the while…

as I gaze at those smiley faces ~ I am sure one winked...
