Smile…

My darling,

You have a heart,

You have a soul,

You have God

In good and bad

You have yourself

Smile…

Just look around my dear,

You have a woman,

That carried you,

For a nine-month journey

And a man

Who carried you

For quite a longer journey

Longer than the woman

Whether they are still with you or not.

Smile…

Look around sweetheart,

For family

For friends

For Enemies

For a neighbour

For you are never alone

Smile…

Look my lovely one,

You have shelter

You have food

You are healthy

You are alive

You are not naked.

Just smile…

Look at yourself beautiful,

You can feel,

You can smell,

You can see,

You can hear

You can walk

And work?!

Smile…

Look handsome,

You woke up,

Not the alarm,

Or the neighbour\’s jogoo

That woke you up

It\’s your creator

For he still has a purpose

And a plan for you

Smile…
