I believe that there never has been
A smile sweeter and more alluring
Than one flashed after a crying bout
Everyone would agree without a doubt
Its charm is that of the rain in spring
With a rainbow in the sky appearing.
A timid smile after a tearful burst
Is the sun peeping through nimbus clouds
Traces of tears shimmer like diamonds
Misty eyes soft and tender as the dawn
They glisten like the dewy leaves in the morn
Could melt any man’s heart of stone.
Lips gently trembling a little bit
Displaying a shadow of pearly teeth
A hint of dimples adorns both cheeks
Flashing on and off like twin secrets
Cheeks tinged in a blush of radiant pink
I can’t do justice to such beauty with my ink.
