When A smile lights up a face
Warms the soul, leaves a trace
Joy and happiness fit the bill
Sometimes misery adds a chill
Frown and glower sets the face
For despair we have to brace
Try to find the bud of hope
Nurture it expand its scope
Don’t rail about the tides of fate
Or sour yourself with dishes of hate
Look inside for inner peace
Celebrate every kindness feat
When a smile lights up a face
Joy beams out and adds some grace.
