:)

is the happiest smile
really the most simple
is the toothy grin more decieving
than first thought
the bigger the smile
the higher the curve on our lips
when our eyes strain 
from grinning so wide
that they water
and we say they are happy tears
than is there also
friendly frowns
and delighted grimaces
