Can't you just smile back at me <br />When I send a smile to you, <br />Why is it that your lips are tight <br />And seem so frosty blue, <br />Can't you let your mouth just raise <br />Both sides a little bit, <br />Or is it that my face just doesn't, <br />In your mind, quite fit. <br />If you would smile, your face would be <br />A very handsome one, <br />And I believe that you and I <br />Could have a lot of fun, <br />But until you give a welcome grin, <br />There's nothing I can do, <br />Except, when you look across at me, <br />I'll keep smiling back at you. <br /> <br />© Ernestine Northover<br /><br />Ernestine Northover<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/smile-at-me/
