Your Smile


Your smile makes the worries of the world perish The symptoms of depression Twist into oblivion To crawl away from one’s luminosity Your smile is the heat wave that hugs July Brings the notorious Sahara to life with one glance Revives the soul of hyperthermia Hospitalizes the cold hearted And represents the desire of a blind man’s vision Your smile is the essence of divinity When God said let there be light there was no sun So his thoughts of a star only came from you The curves of your lips represent the form of heaven Something that can’t be created or destroyed Matter of a small space that can change humanity Your smile represents the woman The way a woman should treat herself Holding herself sacred to intruders trying to invade her one prized possession She is king by primogeniture Inheriting the thrones of Oprah, Maya Angelou and Cleopatra How dare for thee to pirate her treasure For one forbidden touch buys a ticket to the bottomless heap For thy shall not lie For thy shall not steal And for thy shall not violate the mother of man Your smile is the sweet taste of cheesecake Cream filling embedded in all 32 spectacles of beauty A kiss from you is worth more of a blessing than any sneeze can imagine And no imagination can ponder on the righteousness of your smile A dentist finding something wrong with you is equivalent to the mystery of life on other planets I wonder if Thomas Edison thought of you when he created the light bulb Or if Einstein really meant that energy equals your cherubic magnificence to the power of two The synonymous words of spontaneous, amazing and dazzling Are understatements to describe your smile For you are above that Fame stretched far beyond the fifteen minutes that any man can buy Honestly, if you were an invested product, Wall Street would not be occupied The one percent would turn to one hundred percent because everything is rich in your smile
