When Leesi Smiles

(to celebrate her 1st birthday)

it’s been a while since we last met
yet little Leesi shyly smiles
a simmer first that then ignites
enough to show four pearly whites
and finally with arms outstretched
full recognition plays its part
she’s asking me to hold her close
come get me Nan i’m ready now
the troubled world is far away
these simple treasures worth pure gold
contentment for a thankful heart

Warm and tender—love distilled into a simple, shining moment.
The grit of the world fades, leaving only what truly matters.
