Because I Live

Quote By Poet "Give a smile out and make a friend."
Because I live,
I can give out smiles.
Do you know they are free,
free to give away.
Today my free smiles made,
someone's day brighter.
Today I made a new friend,
with a free smile along my way.
What do you have to lose,
did you hear me say smiles are free.
Because I live I will give smiles away,
I will put a smile on my heart along the way.

Love it. It requires more facial muscles to frown than it does to smile. Cheers - Gary
