when you smile my name

Posted on August 2, 2012 by Susan L Daniels

this feeling opens
from the toes up
hums joy
deeper than sweet

more gentle
than any hands

& belongs to you

About Susan L Daniels

I am a firm believer that politics are personal, that faith is expressed through action, and that life is something that must be loved and lived authentically--or why bother with any of it?

    there’s nothing sweeter than smiling someone’s name. I like that title and everything about this poem. Brought a smile to my face 🙂
