EVERY PHOTO TELLS A STORY
http://everyphototellsastory.blogspot.com/A CERTAIN SMILE!
(With apologies to Nat King Cole, whose original lyrics appear below.)
That famous smile, that special gaze,
Intrigues all those who peer at her,
In so many ways.
What was she thinking then
When she sat down to pose?
Was she really bored, do you suppose?
The eyes, at first, look full of glee,
And yet that glance
Could be, perchance,
One of mystery.
But many doctors say
Cholesterol is probably to blame!
So that charming smile's
A SYMPTOM!
What a shame!
*
The Original version
A certain smile, a certain face
Can lead an unsuspecting heart
On a merry chase
A fleeting glance can say
So many lovely things
Suddenly you know why my heart sings
You love awhile and when love goes
You try to hide
The tears inside
With a cheerful pose
But in the hush of night
Exactly like a bitter sweet refrain
Comes that certain smile
To haunt your heart again
*Another special smile here:

That's so funny, Brenda. Cholesterol, indeed. Mystery solved. Tee Hee!!!
Ah, these modern doctors spoil even the romantic mysteries.
Very funny and clever rhyme.
I never thought about what SHE was thinking about until now... Great poem (the first one!)
