smile poemS

Smile, my heart, smile.
Your smile means so much to me,
Your smile feeds my reality within,
Your smile liberates me from world-clamour and
world-din.
Smile, my heart, smile.
Smile at least once in a while.

But
Death's endless smiles,
His endless tears,
Please me not,
Fulfil me not.
Alas, alas!
