I made it a point
To smile one day
despite what’s all around.
Grousing vanished,
moaning faded,
and complaining walked away.
No matter what,
I could see beyond
to glimpse the inner core
and that was a smile indeed.
After a while
those happy in their grief
stood further away,
and I had a marvelous day.
Guess who was
grinning?
...from A Gnome, A Candle, And Me.
