Brighten your Day
We have all been given
A very precious gift
Something to always treasure
To be used at any time
In good and bad weather
Have you ever really thought
What you have on your face
Can change the way you feel
And fill you with
Amazing grace?
We all have the chance
To use this gift for others
Just a simple thing
Can help us in our struggles
It’s your beautiful smile
An action that can change
A feeling of loneliness
Into acknowledgment
Acceptance and joy
So share your smile
With everyone you meet
At school, on the bus or train
In the elevator
Walking along the Street
Your smile might be the thing
To light up someone’s day
Changing a persons demeanour
Without a word to say
Say your words
Through a caring smile
It just might help someone struggling
To manage that extra mile
The gift you’ve been given
To give away
Don’t forget to use it
To brighten someone’s day
