Happiness in your little smiles
dancing out
from the corners of your mouth
into the whisper of a laugh unfolding
blooming
for all the world to hear.

Your laughter bounces
off the shadows of my loneliness
warming the sadness in my heart
chasing out the stale air of more melancholy moments
bringing lightness to heavy times
making lite of mountains that once were mole hills. 

You bless me with your presence
your every moment.
You bless me with you.
You.
