Sunshine in the Rain

I spied a fortune of enjoyment in a smile, today...

..as well as a pair of eyes that wrinkled in their corners,

arced-ever so slightly,

and imitated that pair of lips...

..in much the same way.

A smile.

I heard a giggle that spawned a bit of laughter on this same day,

and the spontaneous eruption,

both-surprised and delighted me,

for one person was the cause of all three!

What a happy light, did spray from this one's lamp !

For their actions changed a pair of quiet eyes content,

into two dancing orbs of giddiness,

two flower petals,

into a complete, spontaneous garden,

and the cadence of a quiet brook,

into the thunderous roar of a water-fall !

And now, that all is quiet once again,

happiness still stirs in the waters of life...

..and so blessed are we, that we were allowed to share in the symphony,

that started with the outburst of a giggle,

and a smile that gave grace to the day.

How lovely is the day that includes sunshine....in the rain.
