SMILE:

SMILE:
( I didn't think I had much to smile about
but came across an old poem of mine
then changed my mind)

Everyday I wish you peace,
That will last the whole year through.
Share a smile to e're comes your way
It's a priceless thing to do.

Someone who may be lonely,
It will brighten their solitary day.
Someone who may be down on their luck,
It will cheer them on their way.

A smile may be a facial expression,
To others it means so much more.
Do it wholeheartedly,
Not as though it's a chore.

A genuine smile is worth it's weight in gold,
More than money can buy.
Just smile through your day,
As you go passing by.

  5. The kitty is adorable. I'm sending a smile to you. Isn't there something that says "Smile and the whole world smiles with you. Frown and you frown alone?" Have a lovely day.
