Smiling Through the Tears

Tears do come and tears do go
Some times they just seem to flow
Then comes tomorrow
And we forget our sorrow

What is sad for us today
Will not be something that we say
But most of all we need to smile
Forget our pain for a little while

Nothing is ever as sad as it seems
We need to follow our hopeful dreams
To be upbeat and to shake our gloom
To live in smiles and let happiness bloom

We all have tears. It is what we do with them that counts. Love Edith
