All It Takes

[/media-credit]Loneliness sits besides me
Worry rests on my shoulders
Sadness paralyzes my legs
Anger tries to wiggle into my heart
My vision falls on a smile
Happiness is at my fingertips
Relief grabs a hold of my waist
Gratefulness courses through my blood
Security is what I feel when I think of you

How beautiful and profound. Sometimes it is the little things that can make all the difference. A smile can indeed go a long way. I really try to laugh a lot.. I mean I make a concerted effort to find the humor in things… life throws us a lot of curve balls, and I have been hit right smack in the face with a few of them, and for me finding the humor helps.
Thank you Dani. Smiling cures what ails you. I try and smile a lot -- and friends help with that. Glad you enjoy this one
Wonderful poem, Katy!
Thank you Julian
You never know what one kind act will do for another person.
This is so true, Elisa. It amazes me how a smile will lift my spirits, and I wonder if when I smile at someone they feel the same.
Smiles, smiles, smiles!! I do wonder if people’s spirit is lifted when I smile at someone. I tend to have a smile on my face without knowing sometimes. You create your own happiness, but friends do make it that much better
Just loved this one Katy and you have one pretty smile! <3
Thank you, TJ. And YES, your smile does lift everyone’s spirits. Smiling is infectious, isn’t it?
I saw a typo in my note! *head desk*
