“Let us always meet each other with smile, fowwr the smile is the beginning of love.” Mother Teresa
I have volunteered with one hospice patient for more than a year. Although, her awareness has continued to words diminish she always greets you with a smile when she knows you are beside her. It is not a week smile, but a big smile with flashing white teeth. It is a smile that lights up her whole continence, if only for a moment.
robbed of memories
her eyes and smile still flash
with every greeting
