What a smile can do |

There is a gift within us all Of sharing inner thoughts and feel Not harmful as it passes on But something that does give and heal Not everyone does share this gift Not knowing that it waits within All missing out on its surprise And cheerfulness it does begin It does not cost a penny Or make you feel you’ve drained your might It puts you in a place of care And makes that moment shared feel right It’s something that is given free From face to face and carried on A soul exchange that gives some warmth A moment where two lives belong I smile to you and you to me Contagious as it fills the day For now the smiles seem everywhere Giving joy along the way |

Strange, I've just read a poem about smiles; a seed that germinates to a feeling of well-being. There's smiles and there's smiles, we all know the real thing, and that never goes amiss. Thank you for your poem. |

you can never smile too much, i know because there is hardly one ever off my face and it only brings good, a nice poem and a good reminder ! |
