Do the Write Thing

The Sweetest Thing

 

Leah Wilson

The sweetest thing I could imagine would be love.

The site of a child watching the magician and his dove.

The smile of a child when they have accomplished their goal.

The sound of cheering when you see that mare give birth to her first foal.

The light in a happy child's eyes that sparkles like stars.

The look when you take your little girl out side to show here the stars and the planet Mars.

The look of a baby sleeping warm in its bed.

The feeling of that soft fur on a puppy that is her first of "man's best friend".

Then there's that feeling when she comes home with her first boyfriend.

With doubt you accept it as she says "I'll always be your little girl till the end".

Then the sound of pride when she wins her first jumping competition.

Then the sight of her ambition when she draws up her first petition.

The look of never ending happiness in her eyes when she says she's in love.

Then comes what you secretly wanted but was afraid to admit her wedding day with the release of white doves.
