Wear A Smile Poem by Mary Roshma

You cannot be happy always
For sure, you will be distressed in many ways!
But that doesn't mean you should wear a frown on your face;
Be cheerful all the time, a smile says!
Even if you have the most dreadful mystery within,
Let it fly away to its hell awaitin'!
Never keep it locked in your heart's cage,
It would shake you tremendously with hot rage!
Calm it down with ice-cool cheers,
Never keep it hot, which would bring in tears!
Whatever it might be, wear a smile,
Never build up your worrying-pile!
When some hurts you, give ‘em a smile;
That would spread the joy even to a mile!
Let people find no sorrow time,
Even when they dig to the deepest of your mind-mine!
Keep your mind free of any harm,
When it returns, chase it off; it's an alarm!
So, wear a smile in your hardest time,
It's then that your solid life into free air, shall sublime! !
