Of SMILES AND MISSILES

When the Poets realized

That the world

Was on the brink

Of self-destruction

 

They organized a meeting

At which it was decided

To open an industry

Of good sense in every capital.

 

Smiles will be manufactured

On a large scale

And lips too

To fire the Smiles.

 

The smiles were from

Earth to earth, and from air to air

And some could be fired

From earth to air

 

The medium range ballistic smiles

Could damage the enemies

Of life, and shower on them

Bombs of flowers.

 

Some missiles are full of

Blessings and good wishes

Fired from heart to heart

Hit the targets hard.

 

The fighting world looked 

In utter amazement

At the rockets firing smiles

From the skies.
