I stare at his rich fair skin
                                        and get lost in his dark brown eyes
                                           There is a genuine look to him
                                             No front, no act, no disguise

                                              How friendly those eyes are!
                                              Warm and inviting, they shine
                                          They laugh and shimmer like a star
                                        Oh how I wish their gaze to been mine
                                   His kind heart seeps through as his face pirks
                                  Beautiful lips pull up displaying his perfect teeth
                                   His cheek and jaw bones accentuate his smirk
                                  His cheerfulness shows outside and underneath

                                                     ­       Every Line,
                                                         every shadow,
                                                    every­ mark on his skin
                                    Was divinely created to hold the shape of a grin

                                  What a shame it would be to see this face frown
                                      What a crime it would be to see a tear shed
                                      on this masterpiece as precious as a crown
                                 This peaceful happiness that radiates from his head

                                 Innocent and trusting, his heart lives on his sleeve
                                    The natural state of his face is a joyous smile
                                 There’s a brilliance around him I hope will never leave
                                     Being honest, genuine,and sweet is his style

                                      I feel sorry for anyone who hasn't seen this art
                                        He has a wondrous air about him it seems
                                      A secret light in his smile that warms the heart
          
                                                       A smiling face so bright
                                                                ­  It beams!
