Smile

A smile reflects God's shinning light,
And joy it brings to all in sight.
the beauty of the soul shows through,
And helps us all be not so blue.

Not one resists a jolly face,
It brings good cheer to the hectic race.
It's like a rose coming to full bloom,
And makes us glad to be in the room.

We like to stare and watch a smile,
Especially when not filled with guile.
The face it blooms, the lines they form,
The upward tilt and smiles are born.
