Smile

Today I was given the brightest smile,
From a friend who came to stay awhile.
Grace and Beauty was all I saw...
Strength and wisdom from the heart of Her soul.
And lifted I was, til I reached the Sun...
Lifted I Am by the Heart of One.

I reached for center, where Her Flower grew...
And was given a blessing to bring to You.
A soothing Wind from a cloud of snow...
A kiss of beauty from the heart of My soul.

Yes a smile goes a long way, and you never know who may be going thru a particular problem, when you smile it brings joy to that person, and another thing, it is said that one takes fewer muscles to smile, and more to frown. keep on smiling my bro; Abe
