Don’t let the buggers get you down
Don’t fret and wear a sad sad frown
But just determine every day
To wear a smile as if to say
Sod off I’m happy as can be
I don’t need you – you don’t need me!
And then resolved be sure to do
All things that blast away the blues
And live a life that so imparts
Pure kindness, grace with loving heart!
They come!
They gather!
They smile!
They smile in incongruous exaggeration
Smile to elicit a favour
Smile to break the moment
The moment of upturned corners
Gracing the world with a social smile
Disguising a stressed face
A stressed face mimicking; impersonating another
Testing for the genuine until
It melts into the Duchenne
The Duchenne smile of all smiles
Real; warm; eye crunching
Dopamine in a face
In a face that draws each to the other
Elicits the power of friendship
Summons past that icebreaking beginning
And then …..
Then they drink!

There’s a twinkle in your eye
A smirk across your face
A dimple in your cheeks that shows
The best of human race
A smile so broad and wonderful
It makes me want to grin
The contagious delight that means
We all then win win win!
