Mathnawi Poetry - the Simple Smile
THE SIMPLE SMILE
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The simple smile, many secrets it can hide.
My love forlorn, not what your sweet smile implied
Your kiss, ice cold as your lying smile foretold!
Evoked a memory, 'smile through life be bold'!
My Dad said, "Sweet smiles can fulfil many dreams".
True, however evil and good ones it seems!
I would like to think my smiles always speak truth
I smile, with you, why? My love for you forsooth!
Look beyond smiles, the miles I've walked, smiles wiped clean!
Nature, her smile concealing pain, a lost dream.
Smiles always hold secrets, beware a wolfs grin!
You will hardly ever find a wolf that's thin!
