Your eyes are like the rainbow
its seven colours, scattering
all over your face
the two ends of the spectrum
somewhat like a string
stretching the angles of your lips
into a wide smile.
Your smile too,
reminds me of a river
flowing from east to west
spraying freshness into the air
and spreads
like a microscopic germ;
a friendly germ that
walls off parasites
and brings about hope.
Twice, I see hope in you;
behind your eyes and
behind your smile.
