Lakes and trees

Like trees in a lake
Smiles
At first
Seems like a single one
Just yours
And that's enough
Enough joy
Your own tree
But you walk
You see
The other branches
Written on top of that mirror
The reflection of your smile
A branch from your life
Just as formidable
Just as outstanding
A second smile
For a few seconds
And then
A dozen steps
You see
Not two trees
No reflection
No branch
No mirror
Just one sight
Combined, together
One divine masterpiece
From top to bottom
Carved through heaven with joy
Swelling the rare frackles of light
Camouflaged through the simple of the world.
