A SMILE

When things don't go the way I want, I feel all low & blue
I walk alone on a quiet road, don't  know why or where to

 The mind runs at a speed of light
With a zillion permutations of wrong and right

 And amidst this crazy thinking spree
I got distracted when I see,

 A little kid playing in the pool
The energy, the joy, an adorable smile , the site was just  so cool

He splashed water all over the place and played with his reflection
He rubbed his nose against his mom's, in the air was all affection

A smiling face got a smile on mine and changed my trail of thought
The hard didn't seem that hard anymore, things weren't as bad as I thought

I learnt a little something that day, that I would like to say
There is nothing so sad, not a thing so tough , there is always hope, a ray

All one needs is a positive mind, a vision beyond the sorrow
And there you see the sun of hope  shining bright on your tomorrow
