Smile

This thing crept across my face the other day,
I'm not sure why and it won't go away.
So far it seems it has come to stay,
Despite the obstacles thrown in my way.
Almost certain is that, come what may,
It is keeping the gloom out, far at bay.
The colours it splashes conceal the grey,
Wouldn't it be nice if it could be kept for re-play!
