A SMILE

a poem written with a positive approach..hope you'll like it....please read

A life without a smile
Is a walk longer than a mile
Just for nothing in your hands so bare
A thing which you even can't share....

Let your shining teeth be exposed
let them with an admiring expression be showed
What you'll do preserve them boy
Just smile with an unusual mode.....

It's priceless yet didn't cost a penny
So why feeling lonely and acting rude
Just wear this real or fake ornament
Maybe it can fix someone else's mood....

It can have many forms
Sometimes is a cat sometimes being mice
At times it's of joy at times of pain
Yet it can melt the broadest ice.....

So carry this supportive thing
coz, it's the cure for the deepest pain
Even it's a thing required
Just like a scorching desert craving for rain.....

Author's Note

'What you'll do to preserve it boy...just smile with an unusual mode...'
So true and real..a smile controlled and preserved won't make you rich instead it's a priceless treasure which though can't solve your problems but gives you strength to face and even hurdle it..not your comrade or companion still cures your deepest pain...so just smile..life is too short to be wasted without it....

I think you may need to revise these lines above.

Anyway, grammar aside. I like your poem. I get what you want to convey immediately and it's incredibly nice to read.

Such great advice held within a very nice piece of poetry; I smiled throughout the entire read, and sincerely enjoyed the sentiment.

thank you ma'am..

It's true about how smiling can help if you are sad because it releases endorphins. Plus, it is much easier to smile because it only takes 17 muscles to smile, but about 43 muscles to frown. Inspirational poem.
