Inspired by the contest of my loving poet sis Linda

 

 

We can smile like a child who does not know yet many things, In simple things he’s satisfied, showing his contented feelings. We can smile like a drunken man, feeling so drowsy and woozy, Who sings and wears a smile , trying to forget and not to worry. We can smile like a chimpanzee, who’s so happy with a banana After giving us a big grin, we can leave him and write our stanza. We can smile like my grandpa who dearly loves my grandma Feeling Adonis with his strength, he’s never been into a stigma. We can smile like blooming sunflowers on those summer days, Despite the debilitating heat, we can still stand tall with grace. We can smile like the sun that often shines so bright Assuring that everyday you and I will gonna be alright. We can smile and smile even the world sometimes wrenches our heart, For sadness is a transient and in God’s love, He keeps us without a doubt. You can smile just like me, who’s already experiencing a bad memory, But I think I’ve nothing to worry about, for the computer does all for me. At all times, you and I can wear a smile in any way we want Infecting others to retain beauty, stay young in body and in heart. June 24, 2013 4.55am Second Place Contest: Smile Judged: 6/26/13 Sponsor: My greatest poet and sis, Linda Note: Giving my best to make you smile by making it a little bit funny ;). Have a great day in sunshine! Big sweetest hugs!
