Because A Smile Shared Poem by Mark Heathcote

Be intimate with God, share your fears, and love-
remember- there were olive branches and a dove
let a smile guide your footsteps through the dark
let it light a path that others follow in high tidemark
let it be your choice when it's fraught with danger.
Heart on sleeve, be always kind to a passing stranger.
It could be a child who's lost his/her way, gone astray
Remember to invite them into your heart each day.
Because a smile shared is more than just a sunray.
