How Is It That…?

Smile! Welcome Back =]

Smile! Welcome Back =] (Photo credit: blentley)

How is it that
You always make me smile
Your thin demeanour
Serious gaze
Your under-stated style
All make me want
To see your face
And linger here awhile

How is it that
Your laugh is like a summer song?
Your humored words
Your banter
Content where you belong
All make me feel
A warm regard
As sweet as it is strong
