Crooked

If you see something beautiful in someone
speak it.
I am constantly reminded
that viewpoints differ
and what one finds attractive
is not necessarily
the tangible,
but what lies beyond it.
I am not a fan of my crooked smile.
Have always hated it.
And yet,
there are so many folks
that tell me it's that smile
that draws them in,
disarms them,
and envelopes them in love.
So who am I to critique God's work.
I will always smile.
No matter my thoughts.
Because my heart is happy.
We are all crooked
in our own way.
