SMILES

Smiles

Earth smiles in flowers

Sky smiles in the light of moon

Sea smiles in the beauty of waves but

why you have forgotten to smile my man?

Rain smiles in the growth of plants

Rivers smile in the growth of civilization

Culture smiles in the order of a society but

where you have lost your smile my man?

God smiles in the smiles of poor

Devinity smiles in the smiles of children

Nature smiles in the beauty of insects

Which seizes your smile from your face my man?

Smile my man

to conquer this world

smile at your pains

to prolong your death

Smile ,while you talk

to win everything in this world

Love your poetry

but distrust your divinity. Who is it it? Can you give it a name? Most divinities are human created for power or greed. Can you name yours? cheers, Jess
