A bunch of pink roses
made me forget for a while
the troubles of the world
the aches and the strife
A good many things it taught me
smile as long as you live
though brief be existence
and beauty may not last
Worry not, what lies ahead
turn your face to the sun
and shine in its fire like a pearl
Be not afraid, of the rogue wind
you may lose a petal or two
you may have dreams scattered all over
but smile as long as you live.
