Sheena's Smile

So I watched Win A Date with Tad Hamilton last night. Sheena and I were commenting on the part about how many smiles the person has. I told Sheena she had several as well. She asked me how many, and although I couldn't answer immediately this is what I came up with.


YOUR SMILE

Your smile is infectious
Just like your laugh it spreads.
It's illuminating beauty graces the wearer.
But you don't have just one.
There's more than that to be noticed.

There's that one you have when you are around your friends.
A smile so big, no one else can compete, but you wear it well.
There's one when you are tired.
Still an undeniable sense of joy but mixed with lack of energy.
Another when you are surprised.
It's not a perfect smile, but definitely just as beautiful.
There's one that comes when you get excited.
Your smile as well as your eyes brighten with this one.
One when you look just plain gorgeous
And I wonder if you realize it, this smile seems so natural.
One I've noticed comes about when you laugh.
Your eyes almost shut with this smile portraying the joy you have in life.
One when you're trying to be cool.
It fits you so well, your lips purse together, but the ends turn upwards.
You have one there's no doubt your up to something.
It's a hard to describe but it's unmistakable.

And so, my roomie,
These are the smiles-the smiles that you spread all over a room
I've counted eight,
But then again I've only known you three months.
What else is hiding behind your smile?
