To See You Smile

To see the sun breaking through the clouds,
To spot a familiar face amongst the crowds,
To smell a rose, it’s petals just unfurled,
To stroke a cat beside a fire curled,
To hear a bird sing a joyful song,
To feel the rhythm as I sing along,
To taste the sweetness of a birthday cake,
Or the tang of a peppered steak,
To carve a curve in freshly fallen snow,
To see a planted seedling grow
To feel the thrill on a rollercoaster ride
To create something and look at it with pride
These are things for which I’d walk a mile
The least of which is to see you smile.
