Smile!

Smile

Smile, it can change your thoughts

Go on, give me a grin
...
The more you stretch it across your face

Your spirit uplifts from within

You start to feel so good inside

You feel happy on this smiling ride

Just as long as you keep on smiling

It's not such an effort to do

Hang on in the smiling ride

Smile, you'll be a happier you!

I don't see how anyone can read this without smiling or thinking of things that make you smile. A lovely poem Simone and so glad to see you post a new poem. Love, Connie

May Aunt Eva was always a believer, Simone. She said you could change your perspective on life just be acting happy. And she was the happiest person I ever knew. Wonderfully uplifting verse! Love, Carolyn
