Peace Begins With a Smile

P- Perfection is a myth, peaceful perfection; a bold lie more so since E- Elegance in societal behaviorism seems to dance upon the A-Alluring notes of forgiving and forgiving with a smile, an act worth more than a C- Cent, worth maybe a million stars in the firmament, all shining brightly E-Eagerly meant to lift up from our moods, the many rolls of our B- Bad temper, our own E- Enemy, bringing to us severed ties and bad health, having us G- Gurgling at life as desperately as would fish out of water do I- Incapable of even finding ways and means to jump back into their N- Natural habitat! And like them, we, mere mortals inhabiting human bodies can only S- Snuggle upon the cozy clouds that peace gives us, regardless of the situation, as W- Without it, both on the inner side and the outer side, we become I- Instruments of evil, capable of bringing harm not only to ourselves but to all T- Those who form part of our symphony; our inner universes and satellites, H- Harboring thus, a toxic fruit which does not deserve to be there on our trees! A - And, since a smile is so beautiful, S- Share it with the world over, even if you see reflected back at you, M- Mockery or even hatred, mind it not, just share a smile and you shall see, I - It shall cause your gardens to be filled with fairies, dancing to the exalt of L- Love revolving upon the notes of selflessness and beating to the drums of E-Exquisite acceptance to the power that bid us all be as we are!
