Smile Day poems
A smile's the key to every heart,
A gift that costs you not a thing;
May joy be yours right from the start
And laughter make your spirit sing!
Just smile and watch the day grow bright,
Just smile and all your worries go;
May every hour feel warm and light
And happiness around you grow!
