Simple things that make me smile
Were lost somewhere, I did not find.
My laughter had gone & lost its way
I'd even forgotten the last sunny day.
When my eyes had twinkled & I laughed out loud.
My face was forever covered by the cloud.
And then one day something went right.
In an unknown path I decided to stride.
The road was rough,
I didn't think I'd reach the end.
I was desperately searching
for the hand of a friend.
When I was almost about to give up.
Things and forms began to shape up.
The thorns on the path gave way to flowers
The night sky twinkeld with anxious stars.
And somewhere something hit the right note.
I felt a gurgle deep in my throat.
& suddenly a smile appeared on my face.
And my eyes crinkled and doubt left no trace.
And deep within started a laugh.
And starteld me as I bent in half.
And curled up in myeself
As if caught in a fit
And laughed like hadn't in quite a bit.
Sometimes,the strangest thing
hits the right chord.
As if a sign from the Overlord.
And puzzles that never seem to make any sense
Suddenly work out and you break the toughest fence.
That bound you from within or from without
And your mind is clear with no trace of doubt.
And then the joy of the gift of life.
Are appreciated for the worth they derive.
And the joy comes up as a smile on your face.
And everything makes sense in a perfect lace.
