A Simple Pleasure

Folder: 
Love

It is a simple act,

really.  This thing

you do that sets my

whole body tingling.

So heartfelt it makes

my heart melt.



It is...your smile.

Who knew that the

small. but significant

act of showing one's

teeth could be so

disarming and yet

so devastatingly

wonderful.



I mean, your smile is

like the brilliant

moonlight on a clear

and starry night.  I

want to bask in that

brilliance for an

eternity.



Your smile is like the

new day's first rays of

Sun.  And like the amber

light that shines bright

as it sets when the day

is done.



Your smile is like the

warmth of an evening

fire.  It comforts the

soul like a children's

choir.



Please let ME be the

one who is the source

of your happy heart.  

I'd be proud to say

I placed that gleam

upon your face from

the very start.



Even when the clouds

are gray, your precious

countenance brings some-

thing pure to that cloudy

day.  I vow to never let

anyone take your smile

away.



It is a simple pleasure

that I enjoy from the

simple measures that you

employ to bring me, each

day, endless joy.



Just...when you smile.
