A special smile



That smile

of sunshine

lights my world.

Every time I see it,

I feel like I've been

on a rollercoaster ride

for all of my life

and now I'm standing

as the world ripples in time

with the swirly feeling I get inside.

They call them butterflies,

but I've got whole swarms of birds

flapping around within,

for that smile gets under my skin,

it burns right into my heart,

and I have to admit I love the feeling.

 

The smile can always awaken

those birds in my stomach,

you can hear them all

singing their heartfelt calls

as they believe that dawn has arisen.

That smile shines brighter

every time I see

its raised corners

pull into position

the air all around.

To these lovelorn eyes it looks like

the sky is smiling back at me,

and for that I am happy.

 

That smile could

make flowers grow tall.

Flowers, that have

been stuck in darkness,

just a bud with no hope at all,

until that sunlight falls,

and it starts to breach

its dark skyline

to witness the true beauty

lying just outside.

That smile I've seen

a thousand times,

rarely used to bloom

it too hid in the dark gloom,

until it found its own spark of light

to give it a start.

 

That smile contains within

a sense that everything

can be real. That ships

of imagination

can once again set sail.

That tomorrow can be better

if we just let ourselves

flow across the waters.

That smile contains

galaxies inside.

So many stories,

every starlight space flight,

a set of adventures

to traverse to see what lays

ahead in our shared memoirs.
