Smile



Friend, why do you frown?
Many the people with no food
Well fed and wearing a crown
Why are you not in a good mood?
With more friends than you can count
Clothes, warm throughout winter
Why from this bad mood not dismount?
Why sit there crying and bitter?
Will your tears fix anything?
Stand, walk, and then fight!
What good will sorrow bring?
While the sun is shining bright
Today is okay, tomorrow better
With love everything is brighter.
