Today we smile.
Life is a long day followed by an early rise.
A friend turned foe with utter despise.
A dark cloud making ominous skies.
Life comes with ups and downs.
Smiles from everyone,
And frowns all around.
Life is a wink and a nod,
With lots of good cheer,
A glare and a snarl,
A snicker and sneer.
Life is good,
And then it is bad.
Happy sometimes,
And sometimes sad.
Life is a fairy tail,
And also it’s not.
Just depends on how you write the plot.
On dark days,
When things are dreary,
Re-write your story
To be happy and cheery.
You may want to laugh,
And sometimes to cry,
But sunshine always helps tears to dry.
Wake each day,
And put last night to rest.
Put a smile on your face,
And give Today your best.
