The Face

I saw a peculiar joy, enclosed in those eyelashes.
An unusual smile escaping that dispirited face,
After ages, there was a vigor amongst the ashes,
After ages, by the light, dark was embraced.

The smile widened its horizons.
The face blossomed with sheer ebullience.
The spark in his vivacious eyes paid a tribute to his optimism,
As I eulogized the mirror’s invention!
