My Canadian Chronicles 20
It is nice to see someone smile
and occasionally we do this
by doing things unexpectedly.
As we walk around each day,
we might see something
someone we know might like.
If you are like me, you will buy it
and give them a little surprise.
You will be surprised by their reaction
and how much it cheers them up.
I always take the time
to wrap the present up.
It adds just a little more when they unwrap it.
Making someone smile
can make you feel good as well.
In these days when worries plague our mind
lets take a few moments
to distract them away from theirs.
As it is good to give whenever we can
and brighten up someone’s life.
You never know
there maybe a day
when they will do it to you.

Give A Little Bit Of Smile
Friends of the universe
I welcome you all
To the world of sunshine and laughter
Theres so much to see if only you could see
That life is so merry, so jolly and free
Come listen to me and hear what I say
Just a little favor from society
cause it only needs a muscle to be happy
So come and show it and give all the love
Refrain:
Give a little bit of smile
And the world would smile too
Yes, a little bit of smile
And the sun will shine through
Give a little bit of smile
Spread the cheers now
Spread them smile after smile
Life will be easy, I promise youll see
Open up your eyes to things of beauty
And remember the world will find its glory
If you and me will only agree
Give a little bit of smile
And the world would smile too
Yes, a little bit of smile
And the sun will shine through
Give a little bit of smile
Spread the cheers now
Spread them wide like the bird
That keeps on flying in the sky
Like the child who listens to a lullaby
Theres a smile that we can share together
Give that smile and love one another
Give a little bit of smile
And the world would smile too
Yes, a little bit of smile
And the sun will shine through
Give a little bit of smile
Spread the cheers now
Spread them smile after smile
A little bit of smile

Smiles Are Something Speacial
I love to smile,
for a smile is something speacial
that it could brighten up a day,
smile,
I smile to people, whom has unhappy days,
you may have gone through bad times,
and flown,
but after awhile you smile like a little clown,
you sometimes even smile because somethings are funny,
smiles are also make in other ways,
like me,
I like to show my bear smile face,
that would make my mommy just laugh,
so will you just give a little smile that will just brighten up your day
it's really speacial in a way...

I Can’t Live Without Your Smile
Smile at me for good morning -
I can’t live without your smile.
Give me the morning blessing,
Please, give me the little while.
And smile at me for good night
To make my night dreams come true,
And smile at me by moonlight -
Your smile is of great value…
Smile at me for all my life,
Don’t stint on your smile at me,
And each day be nearby
To make my days and nights sweet.

I Can Give You Everything
Hurry wont you hurry
Light my eye with your smile
Cross my palm with your thought
For the hand that meets the eye
Brings you closer to my mind
Cos in one crowded hour
You plan to make all the moments
(plan to make all the moments)
Last a lifetime
I can give you everything
I can give you everything
I can give you everything
That I want to give
All alone in the heat of the night
Say come on lets be strong
Kindle my soul
For you are my pride and joy
For it is precious
Sing rejoice, sing rejoice
For I bring you good tidings
I can give you everything
I can give you everything
I can give you everything
That I want to give
All washed up and dirty
I had no place to go
I had no place to go
I can give you everything
I can give you everything
I can give you everything
That I want
Come on with your everything

Definition Of A Sister
A sister always does things that are nice
She offers her services and good advice
And always whenever we feel blue
She shows us life's brighter view
A sisiter always readily lends her ear
And share our smiles and good cheers
And always try to in her style
To bring us the joy of laugh and smile
A sister always shows in her way
How to brighten our rainy day
And share life's secrets to show she cares
And all out things either common or rare
And today dear for you I really pray
And thank you for saying nice things you say
And proudly tell that you my sis
Are surely send as God's gift and bliss.

Don't it feel good?
Don’t it feel good
When you rise in the morn
Sippin’ your cofffee
Feeling the sun on your face?
Hearin’ doves cooing,
sparrows twitterin’
Feelin’ kinda good
Bout the whole human race.
Don’t it feel good
When you give a smile to a stranger
And the smile is returned
With uninhibited grace?
Don’t it feel good
To compliment someone
With praise as priceless
As Chantilly lace?
Don’t it feel good
To watch the surprise
And the warm glow of pride
That comes over their face?
don’t it feel good
To love everybody…
The way that
Everyone should?
Live your life… the way
you know you should
And what’d I say?
Don’t it feel good… to feel good?

When I Was A Child I Believed
When I was a child
a very young child
I looked at the world
of adults in discussion
their patterns of interaction
their comments reactions
a very strange world
differences between what adults said
and what child were told
their masks worn
and I thought about what
they did and why?
Questions were asked
about what you wanted
to be when you grew up?
The work question was important,
but never asked was how well you
would do this work, and for who?
They were often silent or suddenly angry
‘children were to be seen but not heard’
the news to be listened to in serious silence.
First talk repeat their sounds
to smiles laughter
then don’t talk be silent listen?
First stand walk walk how far
then don’t walk stay wait
where your told don’t go away?
When adults met sometimes they would
start to talk a lot fast all at once not one
at a time and laugh a lot talk walk funny?
Why not be on their best behaviour
nice to others as they told children to be?
Why not choose to be good not bad?
Years later I would smile a lot why not
it costs nothing to smile and often others.
Would catch your smile and smile also?
Even when sad smiling was a good thing to do
to appreciate all you have been given.
Even though you could not always play with
what was given or go outside or play with friends.
Especially on those boring rainy days.
So many games were not allowed if you got dirty?
As a teenager smilie would be a nick name.
That smile given freely to people who needed
to smile but chose to be miserable instead!
It never cost anything to be nice to people either!
To give to help had its own record, it felt good!
Happy people are the nice people to be around!
I believed happiness was the most precious gift,
a person could give another, and if sad then to give,
happiness you did not have; was even more important.
Once in my early twenties I was surprised,
a friend said you cannot be that good,
no one is that good, but I knew I was not good.
At twenty-two when about to travel overseas,
my uncle said you think everyone is your friend,
be careful, everyone you meet; is not your friend.
Now I am older and sadly wiser,
yet I still know that to treat a stranger,
as a friend not a treat is still better.
That to say hello with a smile,
and wish people well,
is still a wonderful thing to do.
I still believe it is a better thing to do.
And when kindness is meet with hostility?
I feel pity for the hurt who choose to hurt.
It is not the right way.
It is not God’s way.
It is still not my way.

Smile.
Smile because someone made you happy.
Even if you might feel crappie.
You might be surprised to find, just smiling could make you feel better.
Smile walking down the street.
Smile to every stranger that you greet.
Your smile might just brighten there day.
People take for granted there ability to smile.
They hide it away, like a lost file.
Just never forget, a smile.
A smile, is always in style.

Your Happiness Matters
I'm sending you some humor
to brighten up your day,
may you smile or even laugh
and feel that life's okay.
I hope you escape the worry
of what others think of you,
you are seen in a better light
than what you think is true.
Your mind is full of thought
and the idea may seem real,
don't let worry in your heart
because it matters how you feel.
Take a break from the day
to help ease the inner pain,
some days you feel depressed
but there is hope after the rain.
Don't give up on the joys of life
when you aren't feeling good,
you are the better person
doing everything you should.
As a friend you are there
when others need a hand,
There are many there for you
that care and understand.
You are fun to be around
and happiness has its way,
You are liked for being you
no matter what you say.
Some days you may struggle
and no longer want to try,
so, enjoy the funny moments
and forget what makes you cry.

When the Buzz Stops
When the buzz stops, remember the bees will be gone
When the buzz stops, remember the petals will be torn
When the buzz stops, remember the summer will be over
When the buzz stops, remember the fall will be near
Oh smile and smile and smile
Lets have a good time
Forget about the winter
Forget about the cold
Lets have a good time a really good time...
When the sun dips
In the lake edge
See the moon rise
From the forest edge
It does not matter
Whether its day or night
As long as you
Yeah you my girl you
Keep my world bright
Oh smile and smile and smile
Lets have a good time
Forget about the winter
Forget about the cold
Lets have a good time a really good time...
When the time is over
Let the sorrows begin
When the moon is dark
Let the clouds cry
Naah there is more time
So light up your smile
Lets have a good time my girl lets have a good time...!

Give A Smile.
When your down,
Give a smile,
No one wants you sad,
When your in a bad mood,
Give a smile,
Because it makes the sun shine,
When you think its the end of the world,
Give a smile,
The bad thoughts will leave,
When you're talked about,
Give a smile,
Show em that your better then them,
When your alone,
Give a smile,
Someone will come,
When you think your not special,
Give a smile,
And you will realize you are,
Thanks to you,
You Make me smile,
When im down.
All i do is think of you,
And theres a smile,
Soon after.

Smile Always!
Smile man, smile! Always smile!
Smile all life and smile in style;
Smiling makes one worriless;
And makes you happy and less tense.
Let your smile be spontaneous;
Smiling keeps body relaxed,
And makes your mind fit and composed;
Smile man, smile! Smile always!
Smile from dawn to until dusk;
That’s one way to beat life’s stress;
Smile to all who come across;
Smile man, smile! Smile always!
Smile and get forever praise;
It will help you pass your days;
You will never feel malaise;
Smile man, smile! Smile always!
Four muscles help you to smile;
Sixty-four help you to frown;
Smile man smile! Smile all days!
Smile man, smile! Smile always!

smile for the good things in life
smile for your health
smile for your friends
and smile for your wealth
smile for the roof over your head
smile for your looks
smile for your free education
smile for all those books! !
be happy about what you've got
be greatful
even if its not alot
shake off those worries
and dry those eyes
wipe away those tears
and that hatred inside
tell yourself you'll get through it
its just a hurdle in life
you'll get through it, you will!
there's no need to reach for the knife
smile for this gift
a life given to you
dont let it slip
you deserve a shot at life too.

A Little Hug
On days when the world
seems to be getting on top of you,
stop and look around,
give someone a little hug
and chase the world away.
You would be surprised
what a little hug can do.
It can lift the weight
off your shoulders
and make you feel good to.
So as you read this little poem,
give someone a little hug.
They might need it
just as much as you.

I Have a Secret to Keep
I have a secret to keep
A secret to keep that deprives me of sleep
It deprives me of sleep but leaves me a smile
A smile when I think of what I feel inside
What I feel inside is the start of something good
Something good that leads to something nice
Something nice that could become something more
Something more than just a smile
Just a smile is what I wear these days
These days when I think of what could yet happen
What could yet happen could be extraordinary
Extraordinary, special, overdue and because of you
Because of you I wear this smile on my face
This smile on my face that reveals my feelings
My feelings that have grown when I thought they were gone
They were gone the last time I got hurt
I got hurt before you came into my life but
You came into my life and put a smile on my face
A smile on my face only hints at what’s inside and
What’s inside is a secret I get to keep
But only for now.

Your Smile For Me
Your smile could change my mood.
And that time I used to feel so good.
And your smile could even make me smile.
Although I was crying I would laugh for a while.
Funny thing and jokes, which I used to tell.
You would laugh and my jokes never did fail.
I am sorry that I never laughed with you.
But still your smile means lot to me and it's true.
You didn't seem to be okay yesterday.
Your parents? ? tell me what did they say? ?
I told you joke and even made fun of myself.
I didn't hear you laughing; I know I am not deaf.
What I am making you angry? i just can't see you,
Unhappy do you even know how much I love you? ?
Are you there? ? why are you not replying? ?
Please reply, without you here I feel like dying.
If I am making you angry then fine I m going
I won't talk to you ever and I am not crying.
You told only I used to make you smile, care about
You while other made you angry and give you hated.
I m just sorry that I thought I was your everything.
Without me you would not be even breathing.
Sorry that I cared about you and tried to make you smile.
Let's see how would you live if I m gone for a while

Alright..., Alright..., First of all
When you wake up in the evening and the day is shot
Find yourself complaining about the things you ain't got
Never goes just the way you want it to
Clich of the day, c'est la vie, that's just life
It ain't easy, it's so tough, it's so easy

(Whatcha gonna do, say, whatcha gonna do)
Put a smile on your face
Make the world a better place
Put a smile on your face
(Whatcha gonna do, say, whatcha gonna do)
Put a smile on your face
Make the world a better place
Put a smile on your face
(Whatcha gonna do, say, whatcha gonna do)
And another thing
You can say I'm a dreamer and you thinks it's all cool
Preaching about the better life I learned in school
But you get what you give in this life that we live
And all that you do will come back to you

Pass a smile
I smile when I am shy
I smile when I want to cry
I smile when I am sad
I smile, when I just go mad
I smile when I am envious
I smile when I am very jealous
I smile when I am happy
I smile when I feel shaky
I smile when I am emotional
I also smile when I act abnormal
I smile when I am overloaded
I smile when I miss my beloved
I smile when I think something
I smile when I think just nothing
Do you know why I am smiling? When I smile at you?
Dear friend, I think it’s a very tough question I asked you! !
Never mind whatever be the reason behind my smile,
Dear, just pass me a smile, at least I feel good for a while
