Theme: Smile

The Joy of a Smile

 

It costs nothing to the owner

yet worth gold to the receiver

turns a grey morning

into one of glorious sunshine

builds new relationships

opens hearts to cross bridges 

connecting one soul to the other

 

it only takes one second to create

but its memory can be everlasting

                                                  -- Avril Meallem

 

One smile emanating from genuineness,

can help heal a wound, light up faces,

diffuse tensions, set things right

 

Its ripple effect can spread for miles

With the power to brighten lonely hearts

Lighten burdens, spread kindness

 

Let us then start a contagion of smiles

Fill this world with fun-sized chunks of joy

Enrich lives with tiny doses of cheer

                                               -- Shernaz Wadia

 

The Joy of a Smile - Tapestry
 

One smile emanating from genuineness

worth gold to the receiver

can help heal a wound, light up faces

turns a grey morning

into one of glorious sunshine.

 

Its ripple effect can spread for miles

yet costs nothing to the owner

 

with the power to lessen loneliness

it opens hearts to cross bridges 

connects one soul with another

lightens burdens, spreads kindness

 

let us start a contagion of smiles

build new relationships

diffuse tensions, set things right

 

Fill this world with fun-sized chunks of joy

to enrich lives with tiny doses of cheer

 
it only takes one second to create

but its memory can be everlasting

                                       -- Avril and Shernaz
