Edward Ibeh Poet Verse

Notes About The Poem

You Make Me Smile

You make me smile...
     whenever you do, because yours
        illuminate the dark corners
           of my soul; it's coruscating light
              shines in.

You make me smile...
     whenever I gaze into your eyes
        I feel it's instantaneous warmth
           cursing through every fiber
              of my being.

You make me smile...
     whenever your face meets mine,
        whenever I think of you
           at any moment. It has a way
              with my heart.
          
You make me smile...
     Why? Because you naturally do
        You're easy to love, and you
           simply charm me
              with beguiling ease.
