Smile
from your bones
and let the structure
of joy move you,
your arms
embracing everything
in half rounds
Smile
from your heart
with closed eyes tilted
up at the corners
and the soft curve
of your shoulders
seeking sky
Smile
from every hair
curling and coiling,
from the soles
of your feet arching
and your fingernails,
quarter moon smooth
Smile
from deep
earth orbiting
underfoot,
to sky bows
from rain
completing their bent
Smile
from your mind
at the thought
of everyone
who has ever
become part
of your smile
