Poetry

1. SMILE
When the astute businessman smiled profoundly exposing his entire armory of teeth;
it seemed deliberate and artificial,
I developed an instantaneous abhorrence for him; as he seemed to be having evil
intentions lurking furtively in his mind.
When the power hungry politician on the stage smiled; embellished scrupulously in
magnificent attire; it seemed as if he was putting in a marathon amount of effort,
He was forcing his lips wide trying to appease the boisterous crowd; when actually
the interior realms of his mind wanted him to thunderously snore and sleep.
When the potbellied postman standing on the door smiled; it looked as if he was
trying to conceal his intense infuriation,
The ulterior motive behind his congeniality was to extract a glass of cool water;
munch at some sizzling refreshments; when he actually felt that he threw the bulky
parcels on the ground and ran away.
When the stringent policeman smiled at the culprit; it seemed as if he was vehemently
trying to suppress his intense indignation,
All he was doing was nimbly buckling under a threat to his family; when he knew he
should be indiscriminately thrashing the criminal for his plethora of barbaric deeds.
When the waiter in the restaurant effeminately smiled; it blatantly appeared as if he
was unwillingly pretending,
The bulging purses of his customers had made him adapt to unfair means; while in
reality he fervently wished to splash a glass of water on their faces for rebuking and
condemning him.
When the doctor in the operation theatre smiled; on first sight it seemed as if he was
philanthropic and committed diligently to the impoverished society,
Although after a while I saw him guffawing loudly; while accepting a colossal sum of
money for his benevolent deed.
When the drunkard man swaying rampantly on the street smiled; it appeared as if he
was hiding a trail of forlorn misery,
There was an accentuated sea of anguish lingering in his inebriated eyes; and he
stretched the corners of his cheek simply to pacify apprehensions regarding his
health.
When the magician swirling on the stage smiled; it seemed as if it was an intentional
attempt to allure the audience,

2. The conglomerate of his bones felt weary after performing for the entire day; and all
he wanted was a cup of steaming coffee compounded with infinite hours of blissful
silence.
When the omniscient creator smiled on this earth; there was no questioning the
authenticity of his smile,
Although it encompassed scores of organisms; the tangible and ethereal; and I had
only a minuscule fraction of his smile to preserve meticulously with me.
And when my beloved smiled staring deeply at me with her emphatic eyes; she put an
abrupt end to all my quandaries regarding the world,
It was a smile, which impregnated in me a new spirit to live; a smile which was
exclusively meant for me and mind you this time I wasn’t ready to share .
