Reason to Smile

A smile is worth even more than you know. You are rich with them so give them away to someone else, you have no idea what they will mean to someone else. :)

Reason to Smile:

How can one smile such sweet smiles, 
When one is so saddened by sorrows for miles,
 
How can I smile the same smiles,
 
When life brings me nothing but tears,
 

I wondered for so long,
 
What reason you had to smile that long,
 
To keep smiling though troubles come,
 
And still remain sweet and silently overcome,
 

It's such a mystery to me,
 
Your smiles from heaven with glee,
 
I adore and yet envy thee,
 
But I'd rather you smile those at me,
 

I feel happy when I see you smile,
 
Even if I'm sad and lonely,
 
Your smiles bring me somewhere,
 
I don't even know where,
 

But it was you,
 
You gave me the reason to smile,
 
To smile with no reason,
 
To smile for a smile,
 

I guess life is just like that,
 
We need not a reason to smile,
 
For a smile is the reason itself,
 
To rejoice and open-heartedly give thanks,
 

I learned to smile because of you,
 
Because your smiles bring me joy when blue,
 
It proves how well and powerful,
 
A simple sweet smile can become so beautiful,
 

Smile for the sake of a smile,
 
Smile for the sake of happiness,
 
Smile for the sake of life,
 
Smile because of hope left in life,
 

Smile my friends,
 
Smile for me my Love,
 
Smile those same sweet smiles,
 
Smile so the world can be a peaceful dove...
