Smiles Are Free Poem by Frederick Nellist

The face that wears a beautiful smile
Conveys more than words can say
Not only a smile that lingers a while
But the one that is there to stay.
A smile is a rainbow warm not cold
Showing your friends you really care
It might not lead us to a pot of gold
There's really nothing that can compare.


Many things can put a smile in place
It's as though your heels have wings
The touch of a hand a warm embrace
The echo when a wedding bell rings
Lovers know two smiles mean a kiss
Rays of sunshine smile while dancing
A flashing smile can be such bliss
Provocative smiles are for romancing

It's natures antidote for those who cry
Comforts those besieged with pain
Smiles do not require a where or why
It really matters if you smile in the rain
Laughing is music that enhances the soul
We all know it begins with a smile
Smiles are free not something we stole
They keep us all going for miles.
