A Quiet Simple Smile

Rosualdo is just an ordinary person with an extraordinary God, who wants to spread God’s words and love through writing articles and poems.

A quiet simple smile

can ease the sorrow in the gray aisle

It can weaken the robust aching pain

by the joy, it carries to the lonely lane

A quiet simple smile

can tie and connect two dreamy hearts from a mile

It can stop the lengthy journey of heartfelt ambition

by generating a great and strong impression

A quiet simple smile

can destroy the agony of the soul in a while

It can inject the powerful antidote of happiness

and kills the deadly virus of loneliness

A quiet simple smile

can transmit the message of love to the heart’s file

It can fill the vacant space of emptiness

and set the heart free from the realm of nothingness

A quiet simple smile

can make the yoke of troubles to go into exile

It will lighten the heavy burden of stress

by lifting the heart away from distress

A quiet simple smile

can deceive a heart that stays in the pile

It can make a mind think that someone has a feeling

but it is just a smile for a dirty face he sees in his glancing

A smile can go a long way. It can mean so many things.

I find though, when one smiles...he actually feels a bit of happiness inside his own soul too.
