“When life is getting you down, remember a smile does more good than a frown.” Quote - poet’s own Life is meant to be a joy, mother said From the first moment you wake Till in bed your sleepy head is at rest Happy is how we are meant to be It’s a special gift from our magic maker Generously handed to thee freely Always be kind, however you feel For harsh words live on forever Kindness helps the broken to mend It’s also an appealing charm of life.
