A Smile

This is the only way, that you brighten your day, with a single smile, you can move a mile, and change a gloom to a glow. This i have learnt from experience, that a smile in silence , is much better than gloom in silence, for when your face lightens up, the tension sorrounding also lifts up. Want to make friends?,smile want to make an assurance?,smile want to have a healthy looking face?smile for when that smile appears, it halfs your fears. My friend when the going is tough, and the road is rough, and the weight too heavy to bear, just smile and you will feel much lighter, that is the power of a smile!

A smile is so inexpensive; so easily procured; and ... emits so much joy. A really good write, Matilda. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Jack C
