Smile At Life
"We all have suffered a loss,
As in a game with an errant toss
How many times have you misplaced your keys,
Or the family jewels hidden from thieves
The loss of a loved one hurts the most,
As does the loss of fairness between our coasts
The loss of hearing is certainly bad,
But the loss of sight is even more sad
For to have never seen beauty,
Can you imagine it really?
Can you imagine losing your smile,
Inconceivable even for a while
For your smile is the key to your heart,
As it signals happiness will start
Laughter will soon follow,
And fill what has been hallow
And missing inside,
So love can reside
Your spirits can be down,
But please don’t frown
Find a mirror and put on your smile,
It’s a complement to any style
Then show it off to the world out there,
And pass it on to someone else to wear"
