Play it on your lips
Wear a smile on your face,
Wear a smile all day,
For nothing you wear looks lovely without it
Smile away the day,
and watch the effect
you pass around
It might just cheer up the not
so gay
and happiness may well
abound.
And don't you look your best
when you do smile
No wonder you're asked to say
'cheese' for a photo
but the trick is to wear it all
the while
'To smile without distinction'
be thy motto.:)
When someone creases their
forehead into a frown
You curve your lips upward
into a smile
Don't let their scowl get you
down
They'd be the one to look the
clown
while you show off your
inspiring style.
If people stare 'n' glare at you
Return their glares and stares
with a grinning smile
Keep smiling whether they boo
or pooh pooh
They might just reset their
mental file.
Thus forever flash your
pearlywhites
They aren't meant merely for
chow and bites.
Flash em' into a smile that
lights
A crescent shaped smiley on
the face
explore your own facial
expression delights.:)
A smile is a sign of happiness right under your nose
Smile warmly like the sunshine, like the crescent moon
Even when the icy cold wind of discourtesy blows
Wear a smile all day,
For nothing you wear looks lovely without it
Smile away the day,
and watch the effect
you pass around
It might just cheer up the not
so gay
and happiness may well
abound.
And don't you look your best
when you do smile
No wonder you're asked to say
'cheese' for a photo
but the trick is to wear it all

This is such a sweet and happy poem! It's hard to smile when you're in a dark place, but seeing it on someone else, especially if they matter to you, can lift your spirits even if just a bit.
I adored this poem. Well done!

I don't exactly have pearly whites..... But I will run the Ben lee's moto and hopefully catch your disease....... I do enjoy the darkness, but I do pray for more......

Hee hee well mine are not perfectly pearly white either. You mean catch the smiling contagion. Yay I'm giggling. Darkness can be poetic for imagination fun so go ahead.

A smile so simple
can show off a dimple
that no one might otherwise see?
This made me smile thank you.
