Infecteous smiles, better than tablets.


Poem Artwork

There's big smiles

and little creases

that screw up the face

some that can be heard

as laughter all over the place.

There's children so pleased to see

their Mum at the school

their face lights up

excited smiles all the way home,

its smiles and laughter

sometimes in the eye's

wanting too

but trying to hide.

In photographs smiles long gone

as we look

the smile lives on

and on forever

something to treasure.

A gift to share

pleasing when its there

and wiping away

what we hear everyday,

so give a smile

take a smile

share a smile or two,

pass them on

keep them going strong

give them to every one

you know,

what you give out

will come back

so be ready when

another smile

grows on your face

cause thats where they belong

right there

in the right place.
