Give me that secret smile,
the one when your eyes
begin the grin
and the warmth of your love
could turn to strong heat,
at any moment.
Let me know later,
after the kids are in bed,
you'll hold me gently
and the kiss you give
will turn the edges
of the room to liquid.
Give me that secret smile,
the one that's reserved
for our private club.
It's the password
to shutting out
the rest of the world.
While I clear the table
and feed the cats,
catch my glazed-over glance,
the one where I can't see
anyone but you.
Give me that secret smile,
the one that turns the day
around and makes me know
you and I were meant to be.
Lead me softly,
to a place where no one
can see us.
Take my hand, shut the door
and give me your secret smile.

smiles are always
pleasant to receive
they can mean anything
but at least they're not mean
showing those pearly whites
is a good

She felt alone and quite afraid,
Midst people in this far flung place,
They spoke a language very strange,
None
Dear Mother
You brought me in this world through god's goodness, grace and mercy to love and be loved.
