A Pride Full Smile
A single smile can open bolted doors
uncork expensive champagne
put balm on broken souls
chase lightning and thunder away.
A single smile can stop war, sprinkle hope
blunt the tusk of the raging boar
A single heart can give tarp and tea to the homeless.
Lay a flower on a smooth overgrown stone.
Shine light into the pits of a jagged mind
Turn hardened hearts into pulsing diamonds...
A smile can also hide a dagger or a pride of famished lions.
