Your Smile for Me

Telling someone special that you love them.

Your Smile for Me

Your smile for me does gild my dawn
When I awake and find you near;
Your laughter silvers my every morn
When you arise and find me here.

Your whispers as water in wishing wells
That quenches my raging thirst;
Your tender sighs as tinkling bells
That soothe me when by fate I’m curst.

Your trust in me solid as brass rings
When I am far from hearth and home;
My trust in you strong as iron slings
When you yearn to rove and roam.

Your love for me like silver strands
That stretch and strain but never break;
My love for you like golden bands
That never rust nor ever quake.

You're gone now and none can replace
Your kindness and love, heady as wine
But in the vastness of time and space
You were for a brief moment mine.
