I smile on the gloomy days

I smile in the rain

I smile through the tears

I smile through the pain

I smile when innappropriate

Though everyone can see

I smile at the passerby

And, he smiles right back at me

I smile when the sun is high

And I see the children play

I smile at the couple holding hands

Their wrinkles show the way

I smile in expectation of

What tomorrow brings

But most of all

I smile because

My happy heart still sings
