Life

By Charles R. Grisham

Life to many is a cruel thing,
In their hearts no joy bells ring,
No smile, no love for fellow men,
All alone, as though in a den.

The birds, the flowers are unnoticed by they,
All of creation is right in their way,
To offer assistance to these saddened souls
Often is worthless and makes them your foe.

But there are others who wear a big smile,
A beaming face and a happy profile,
Enjoying life and all that surrounds,
The secret to joy they surely have found.

In order to get the best from your life,
Give it your all and live for the right,
Keep on smiling from ear to ear,
And joy and love will ever be near.
