I made it a point
to smile one day
in spite of all around.
Grousing vanished,
moaning faded,
and complaining walked away.
No matter what,
I could see beyond
and glimpse the inner core,
and that was a smile indeed.
After a while
those happy in their grief
stood further away,
and I had a marvelous day.
Guess who was grinning?
