Today's a day for laughter,
Cackling right out loud.
Make a person smile today,
Captivate a crowd.

They might look at you
And think you're very odd,
Might tell you 'bout comedians
Out looking for a job.

Make some faces-tell some jokes,
Be a clown for just one day,
You might cheer up a sad someone,
Make some worries go away.

Sadly life won't always flow
Like the melody of song,
Admire the one that can still laugh,
When everything goes wrong.

Note: Lady Chipmunk wrote me once and told me she took this next line from an old poem of mine and
kept it with her all the time...said she read it everyday....I think she probably did, and I think she did smile everyday.

"Smiles that are worth
More than anything on earth
Are the smiles that shine thru tears...."

Toe - smiles - a gift - I love being silly.  Glad I'm not alone -

Hugs - Susan

Happiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you.  Joy is a state of mind.

Renee/Lyra told me about this and she did carry your quote and quoted you often, just ask Dave.  

"Smiles that are worth
More than anything on earth
Are the smiles that shine thru tears...."

Just think Toe, you could have been a hallmark bookmark or something fine like that     Hugs to you m'friend for all the smiles you give each day.

Hey Toe , thanks for the care and share and  smile to wear , I shall pass the smile around

Like the other saying goes " Laugh and the world laughs with you , cry and you cry alone "

Hope

Well Toe here I was all set for a belly laugh. Went ran real fast and put on my Pampers. Then you go and write real purdy.
Loverly my friend.
Smiles and hugs coming your way.
