Ken Around the Room Some nights when I look around the contours of his teddy bear, I discover my son has followed his pillow to the middle of the room. He lies on the floor with no cover against the cold, away from those things that might offer him comfort when darkness tickles fear. But, there is no fear in his face, his dreams tug the corners of his mouth up, his back is warm and when I breathe in his warmth he is my smile. |
