The Healthy Boy
Next time you’ll notice the boy before he’s sick
You’ll see that smile
Teeth like stars shining miles
On a cloudless night
The laugh that echo’s from lungs filled with might
Vibrating the souls around him like an amplifier
Bass going higher
You’ll hear the truth in every word he speaks
Your heart opening like dam leaks
In the silence he gives to listen
His arms spread like eagles wings that glisten
Soaring through open sky
Accepting any creature that runs in to cry
You’ll realize the joy that reflects from his style
Like a baby’s toothless smile
In every person his eyes gaze upon
Next time you will
Notice him before he’s the sick kid
