Whatever your burden may be,
don’t let it bury your beauty.
Spark a smile.
Life is a platter of possibilities,
don’t focus on uncertainties.
Spark a smile.
Anxiety will become invalid,
When your faith becomes solid.
Spark a smile.
The journey may seem chancy,
but your success can be juicy,
Spark a smile.
No mountain too high, buddy,
Sadness is not your reality,
Spark a smile.
Whatever the past may bestow,
don’t let it dim your glow,
Spark a smile.
You may be tempted to cry,
Let teardrops drip and dry.
Spark a smile.
Your seeds are buried to bloom,
stop declaring defeat or doom.
Spark a smile.
Don’t use your smile as a mask,
covering pains is a pointless task.
Spark a smile.
Let your smile flaunt your hope,
It will give you the vigour to cope.
Spark a smile
Your smile is your best makeover
It sprinkles joy and bliss all over.
Spark a smile.
Let your sweet smile
make someone go the extra mile.
Spark a smile.

Smile is not a mask, but a makeover. It should amplify inner beauty, and not cover up ‘reality’.

Your stanza –
“You may be tempted to cry,
Let teardrops drip and dry.
Spark a smile.” –
reminds us how cathartic crying can be. 😊

I believe that teardrops are like raindrops, they bring soothing relief to our soul and also rinse the window of our heart. I sometimes feel better when I shed tears…
