Sound for TOP





















I have no idea how to incorporate sound for my poetry so here's a poem I wrote about my granddaughter, Kylie's, first smiles.

The Sound of a Smile

I hear music
when you smile,
notes tinkling
in the air
and swirling
in a merry dance.

On this day
in cold February
the tune
was a summer
waltz, slow
and easy,

thawing out
our winter
hearts.

    Not all babies are beautiful, but your grandbaby is! I hope she gets to read this one day.
