• 'An Innocent Smile'


    A hand slipped into his
    He looked down
    His eyes curious
    His lips a frown

    It was a small child
    Eyes filled with tears
    Her trembling hand
    Told of her fears

    Unused to touch
    And kind of shy
    He stared unsure
    Into her eye

    Then a little smile
    Brightened her face
    He smiled back
    Matching her pace

    An innocent smile
    Sometimes all it takes
    To cure a man's heart
    Of all aches and breaks
