The Missing Smile

There Once was a smile on my face but it has been erased. Why? you may ask. Why? I do not quite know, someone broke my heart I was told. But I really don't know why my smile has went away. I miss it very much...I wish it had stayed. For days it has been missing. I've searched but can not find. I even put a picture of it online and a reward if anyone should find. But it's been so long since I've seen it I fear it must have died. But I must try and find it before I go back to school, for what will the kids say if I come back with such a gloom. But now the day's almost over and I slowly look up to see my missing smile smiling back at me. :)

This poem beautifully captures the essence of inherent nature with simplicity and elegance. The imagery of the animals’ tails reflects the unchangeable traits that define their existence, serving as a quiet yet powerful reminder to embrace and honor what is innate in all of us. Short, sweet, and wonderfully profound. ???
