A Look -358 Poem by Smruti Ranjan Mohanty

A LOOK -358

Your Smile

When you smile,
The sun shines in my sky,
And a thousand lotuses bloom in my heart.

When you smile,
The smile of the moon fades,
And it hides its face
Behind a bank of clouds.

When you smile,
The half-bloomed jasmine in my yard
Opens its petals and whispers in my ear:
'Man, you are in love—
Just listen to her voice
And lose yourself forever
In her matchless beauty and elegance.'
