Poem About The Power Of A Smile

This little poem I wrote is just about how a simple smile to anyone, even a stranger, might make a change in someone's day! Maybe even their life. We just never know what another person could be going through!

Cost Of A Smile

Published: October 2017

The cost of a smile isn't much,
although many people act as such.
We all have our problems of struggle and strife,
but a smile will help in anyone's life.
There are so many troubles in this modern time,
so add in a smile; it won't cost a dime.
Cranky people are easy to find,
but it feels so much better being kind.
Frowning people are everywhere,
but a smiling face is a gift to share!
You just might need that smile someday
when things in your life feel sad and gray.
If there's one thing we all need once in a while,
that is the sight of a beautiful smile!

ABOUT THE POET:

I am a mother of two grown sons, we are an extremely close family & extended family, like all families we have had many wonderful & blessed times through life and we have experienced heart ache as well, I raised my sons, to never make judgement upon another persons journey in this life and to be the best them that they can be , that is all we can really do in this life that is so short in comparison to the big scheme of history & time. Is to try, try and live simply and simply live with compassion & forgiveness in our hearts toward one another, being the best person you can be and always changing and growing along the way.
