Share A Smile

you there of bad cheer

of sourness and scowl

so many of us about

you have huddled and

frequently discussed you

and your sullenness

.

we have all come from

where we’ve come from

in places with varying

degrees of sadness and

hardship and loneliness

.

everyone about you here

deals with life and is

knocked about by the

bastard often and without

regard for our well-being

.

we are aware that you too

must have felt the sting

of life, the sudden and

awful, the cruel twist of

fate’s hand playing against you

.

but be with us, be a

part of us, this humanity

share some warmth of

a word, a look or, though

strained and difficult –

share a smile
