Lighten Up Someone’s Eyes!
 
We have something so valuable that can actually change someone’s life.
It can literally take away their sorrows and lessen their fears & strife.
We all possess this ability but sometimes we never utilize.
We all have this gift & power to lighten up someone’s eyes.
 
So why then is it hard for us, to utilize this wonderful gift?
When it could change a troubled soul and give them such a lift.
I don’t think we realize how special this gift could be.
To someone who needs a lifting from people like you and me.
 
So don’t think twice about it, give it with extreme delight.
Change someone’s life today, don’t wait for another night.
‘Cause if you hold tightly on to it, and keep it for awhile.
You many never know the joy, of giving your valued smile.
 
Written by,
Bonnie May

Love the photograph! Well said and so compassionate! Share a smile and maybe even a laugh, but be careful because is can become very contageous...

Be always safe,
