Smile

A smile fits in a badly combed backpack

off to race the globe .

The inner Buddha pauses to meditate

on the peaceful shore of the lake .

       A smile .

smile in this unknown 

that illuminates melancholy .

going off the oblivion ...

Leaving behind the scent of a landscape

you couldn\'t  hold back ...

Intimate alchemy 

from the deepths of time .

A few flower petals courted by a bee...

       Mystery .

Lips of resilience 

 defying the lunar plains 

and those who canceal suffering ,

contemplative smile 

who do not curse ,

 accepting the verdict ,

    Silently...

Mouth with a frozen gaze,

   madona ,

to whom the master gives birth 

  for eternity ...

And all those rictus of aborted revolts !

 \'\' O lord ,forgive them ! 

they have lost the smile of happiness ! \'\'

     A smile is a few lines 

in a book that tells stories 

of gandhi or mandela ! 

 And you say to yourself : 

\'\' This time everything going to change ! \'\'

But everything goes back

to the way it was before .

 Return to the same laughter !

     Who will help us find 

our way back to beauty 

in the ethereal softness 

of a watercolor by Marie Laurencin ? 

  I\'ll go beyond the lake 

to run a world of smiles 

that are not just only sketches...
