A poem for my kids.

Dancing Smiles

You wrote to bring me dancing smiles
Then cared enough to send them
Not one, two nor three or four
So many smiles and then some

I saw dancing smiles in your heart
If only I could touch them
Not one, two nor three or four
So many smiles to choose from

Have you ever embraced a smile
Haven't you ever touched one
Not one, two nor three or four
You have a heart-full to choose from

I could send you a dancing smile
To press soft against your cheek
Not one, two nor three or four
A smile from my heart each week
