Grin

Grin, for the gift of laughter Grin, for the lift you’re after Grin, to begin With no cause For chagrin Grin, for the show you steal Grin, for the glow that's real Grin, for the spin Of the song You are in Rush, to the food you’re missing Gush, in the mood for kissing Dream, once again By the way That you grin Grin, for the joy of living Grin, like a toy for giving Grin, with a chin That is proud Of your skin Grin, for the blues you shattered Grin, for the news you mattered Grin, for the win That you get From within Life, is the sun we borrow Strife, can be done tomorrow Hate, is the sin So please Just, grin.

Hi Susan, Thank you for taking the time to read. I just wrote it last night, so hopefully I can rework it to make it a little bit better, with a little luck. Thanks again.
