She Was Smiling

SHE WAS SMILING
There were a lot of white flowers in the garden
Mommy loves picking some in spring time
She always wanted new ones near the window
Those mornings she was smiling
I closed my eyes
Happily, I flung my arms
To set free all my love my might
She had on a gorgeous long, white gown
Made more precious by old lace work
I closed my eyes
Happily, I flung my arms
To set free all my love my might
Those days she was smiling
Beautiful like the shy spring sun
That gave a warm light to the colours
The air’s odor was intenser and I smelled it
I closed my eyes feeling the wind
