Poet's Note: -  
 

with the fullness of her smile
by Dhamidhu Eratne


What she lacks 
    in idealistic proportions

She makes up
        with the fullness of her smile

   
     How a sun envelops the savannah

        It overwhelms my dryness,
                my wrinkly facades of boredom and ill-fate

        The blue eyes quench this pessimism

                She looks directly at me

                        when smiling
