Smiling… so easy
Some still find it hard
Smiling…
Guaranteed a way
To get on well with life.
It always welcomes people
No matter they might
For a thousand reasons
Be disturbed or full of pride
When I smile
I am smiled back
Who’d dare avoid that?
Because the spirit within
Is rejoicing
Second after second
Best therapy
No risks to be run
A smile a day
Like apples may...
As I smile more often
I’ve found more
And better friends
I argue less
People see my soul
Through my
Smiling eyes and
That I know
They like
Love the difference it makes
Apparently nothing much
Yet, to me
More than enough...

A smile can reveal so much - and hide so much.
This was delightful.
a smile says more than thousands of words..beautiful dulce...i'm smiling now...thanks for this!
Yea lets smile, I love a good smile
Smiles... how can I live without them? Even when I am upset I try to smile because... it just makes me feel better to smile. And... it's contagious. Someone sees you smiling, and all of a sudden, they're smiling, too. What can be better than that? And what can be better than to smile... after a long day's work... while reading about smiling... and positivity... and joy? ;-)
Big hugs,
Nevine
Smiling, smiling, and smiling some more. and I particularly love your last four lines. yes, a smile does make a difference! xo

It takes fewer facial muscles to smile than to frown.
I find it hard to fake a smile because I try to make my smile genuine, and some days I just don't have it in me.
(But most days I do!) :)
Nice piece, Dulce!
Nice progression, good flow--a touch of emotion, thoughtful joy, in a fine work.
Wonderful sentiments. Smile. So simple. Great One Shot.
