The Gift of a Smile

Michael Degenhardt on Oct 22, 2008

Share one today, it’s all the rage.

So pains my heart to see you sad
My wish, to bring you glee
But, alas, so distant I am from that
So this, I send to thee

Take some paper, draw a smile
Then cut it to its form
Paste it then on the PC
Where words for you are born

See it there when you need it
A smile to make you smile
Pretend it’s mine, a gift to you
To keep it for the while
