oh but when she smiles




“What sunshine is to flowers, smiles are to humanity. These are but trifles, to be sure; but scattered along life's pathway, the good they do is inconceivable.”



The lines that frame
her tired eyes,
light up. They seem to dance.
those greyish orbs
turn to blue,
excited at the chance.

A masterpiece of
beauty
is what she then becomes –
When she smiles
she casts a spell
that can not be undone.

The laughter
that accompanies
the curving of those lips
seeps into the thirsty air
and demands
a gaze transfixed.

If I believed that magic
was real
in any way,
I would say that
I had seen it in
the way she smiled that day.
