It's easy making laughter, I do it all day long, To me it is-so worthwhile, To make somebody smile. Sadly life won't always flow, Like the melody of song, Admire the ones that can still smile, When everything goes wrong. Trouble tests your heart, And it comes more through the years, The smiles that are worth More than anything on earth, Are the smiles that shine through tears. For my dear pal Lizzy Santos....a true talented poet, and a fine lady...... [This message has been edited by Toerag (edited 03-10-2001).] |

Thank God for laughter. To hold tomorrow we must first be willing to let go of yesterday. |

I love your poem, but now at the end, I've got an even bigger smile on my face. I'm even gigglin' a little. you are so sweet, and you wanna know somethin'? I think we got the same genes somehow. 'Cause there's always somethin' to smile about. Thanks, dear friend This meant so much to me More than you know Love ya Liz |

Toe your lovely Don't ever give in, if you do you've lost everything you've ever had and everything you hope to gain, but if you carry on your already winning. |
