Smile

I believe in the power
Of a single smile
A smile that can warm
A winter night
Cause a deer to go back
To nibbling clover by the stream
To gentle wild horses
To make falling snow pause and wonder at itself
A smile that can end wars
A smile that can drive men to madness
Struggling to understand.
I believe in a smile that can make the moon smile back
Renewed in its purpose
A smile that could quiet a mountain
To a deeper meditation
A smile to welcome babies into the world
A smile to wish the dying farewell
I believe in a smile that can change the world forever
I believe in the power
Of a smile
Like yours.
