Try Smiling
Frowns won’t get you anywhere;
When your face is lined with care
And your troubles you can’t bear -
Try smiling.
When your eyes are on the ground
Do not moan with mournful sound,
Lift your eyes and look around -
Try smiling.
When your goal seems far away
Keep smiling at the world today,
It will ease and smooth your way -
Try smiling.
