When life seems poorly, sad or tragic
Please try a smile, it works like magic
It is contagious as you can see
Most all folks react like you and me.
Have you noticed those whose mouths turn down
It lends faces that unpleasant frown
What a friendly picture it could be
To see a smile, maybe two or three.
Life certainly has both ups and downs
It would be great if we saw less frowns !
