Smile

Your smile 
welcomes me into
your open arms,
a happy embrace
My smile greets you
without a trace,
of the long awaited loneliness
the day brought without
you by my side
Your smile
my smile,
together again
touching as the day ends and the night begins
A smile attracts
friend or foe
their smile entices
of things to come
a trust unknown
When it touches their eyes,you know its truth
Your smile
my smile,
a smile,
their smile
touching as the day ends and the night begins
One day to the next
the sun fades in and out
hidden behind the clouds
hidden beyond the night
Just like the smile
hidden from one moment to the next
behind the clouds of life
hidden beyond the night
it fades in and out
Your smile
my smile,
a smile,
their smile
God's little piece of sunshine
upon our faces
touching each other as the day ends and the night begins
