inner glow, mindfulness, smiles, stillness, sunshine

Feel what I feel, when I feel what I’m feeling… in The SUNSHINE! -Roy Ayers | #codeofthestreets: SUNSHINE… Everybody Loves The SUNSHINE

All it takes is a little mindfulness,
to radiate your inner glow.

When you discover the beauty in the moment,
love – peace – and happiness will consume the mind.

When you think beautiful thoughts,
your presence will become illuminant; luminous as the sunshine.

All it takes is a little stillness,
to cultivate your inner glow.

Each day blooms a beautiful surprise,
let your eyes exude the sunrise.

Never lose sight of your insight,
open your heart – open your mind.

Always remember,
peace of mind is buried within pieces of the mind.

Keep in mind;
where the mind lies, the heart soon arrives.

Forget tomorrow, forget yesterday;
all you have is this moment in time.

Don’t forget to smile,
your smile is as lovely as the sunshine…

And – everybody loves the sunshine.

Forget tomorrow, forget yesterday;
it’s a lovely day,
today is a beautiful day,
all we have is this moment in time.

Don’t forget to smile,
your smile speaks volumes to a beautiful soul;
one may surmise,
the are eyes are the windows of the soul…
yet I apprise – when you open your eyes to let the sun shine in,
your inner glow becomes brilliant as a diamond…
when you unlock the power within,
even the blind can see your inner shine shinnin’…
when you live life like it’s golden,
love – peace – and happiness become treasure troves illumined in the mind…
when your heart smiles, your eyes smile;
and – your smile – your smile becomes as lovely as the sunshine.

A smile does to the soul,
what the bee does to the flower…
exercise self-restraint,
to gain ultimate power…
forget tomorrow, forget yesterday;
all we have is this moment in time…
don’t forget to smile,
your smile is as lovely as the sunshine…
don’t be afraid to let your light shine on the world,
– everybody loves the sunshine.

Dandelion Girl

dandelions, happiness, kindness, seeds of joy, smiles

Her kindness sprinkled upon soiled hearts,

like dandelions do to grass.

 

Her smile behaved as the wind;

prolifically dispersing seeds of joy from her heart,

she sprinkled happiness upon saddened hearts

like a blow flower in the wind.

 

Her kindness was akin to the wind;

and she was such a dandelion girl.

 

She was a caring and carefree creature of the wind,

she was a dandelion girl.

 

Whenever she appeared,

even the saddest hearts were aglow;

she had a way of springing up happiness,

like dandelion snow.

 

She had eyes like dandelion snow,

you could wish upon the stars in her eyes

like dandelion clocks.

 

Love and happiness

were like clockwork,

as peace parachuted from her eyes.

 

What an eyesight to see,

the iris of her eyes were as bright as dandelion rosettes.

 

She was a beautiful vignette

of kindness

in a cruel world.

 

She was wild in the wind,

gentle as the breeze that propels seeds of joy afloat the wind –

blowing happiness through the hearts of misty-eyed friends;

unfriendly was the enemy, kindness was her remedy

and she sprinkled her splendor splendidly,

she was such a dandelion girl.

 

Her kindness sprinkled upon soiled hearts,

she was a beautiful dandelion girl.

Girl with a Smile

happiness, jazz hands, smiles, split leap, tap dance

The magic in her eyes sparkled like jazz hands.

 

Something deep within my soul began to tap dance;

 

as the corners of her mouth leaped towards her cheeks,

 

with the grace of a ballerina her smile premiered like a split leap.

 

Mesmerized by her bespoken smile,

 

I was obliged to extend a smile.

 

She looked as if her chocolate skin had been sun-kissed with Hershey’s Kisses,

her countenance was such a treat.

 

Her eyes had their own language,

we never had to speak.

 

I adored her eyes;

I would say to myself “what a beautiful language to speak.”

 

We met every morning on the train,

 

I looked forward to her ballet performances,

every morning on the train.

 

We exchanged smiles everyday,

there was magic in her smile.

 

I never knew her name,

I just referred to her as Girl with a Smile.

 

Picasso had Girl with a Mandolin,

I had Girl with a Smile.

 

Remember to be happy,

you never know who’s falling in love with your smile.
