when gloom starts to sink
look to the bright clouds of hope
and hang on for joy
build up fresh waves of belief
and paint your ship's sails with smiles

Sudhir~
I was reading this lovely Tanka as your e-mail came through~

I LOVE the thoughts ... but must throw the title on 'soft ground'~
Either that or I need a dose of that medicine !

Something this pretty needs a pretty title~
Now get busy !  Tee-Hee !
Love n' hugs~

Today, I really needed a soft smile, and a bit of encouragement. Thanks to you, I found a peaceful smile on my lips.
