Smile!

Smile

A Poem by Nayan
"How many times we do forget this special gift, and ignore all signs that it constantly tries to give to us? It all needs a single twine to resonate and touch our heart! " 
Excerpts from my poem 'Smile'



Today he saw a Smile!
In such an innocent style
And water flowed into the dried Nile
As his smile was back from exile!

 ...

When the flame quivered -
Did he ever try to enkindle?
And over time, when it out cried,
He let it go down and dwindle!

...
And gradually, what became of him -
Was instinctive hate and dislike!
That he shouted at every little Tim,
And treated enemy and smile alike!

But perhaps, for him in store,
Was something better and more -
That he got a chance again to score,
When was touched by angels of yore!

...

And he, who had buried his gift
Under the mind’s garbage pile,
His dried face got a lift,
As he looked through the eyes of smile!
