Smile Today
Craig Petersen Smile today As the sun comes up. Approach today With a half-filled cup. Smile today; You have no better chance Than when you’re full of life And with the yearlings still prance. Smile today While the sun is bright. The heart of a smile Is a heart full of light. Smile today While your smile is strong; Before your eyes grow dim And your face grows long. Smile today; Though it’s still noon The sun will set All too soon. Smile today While your petals are bright; For they’ll fall to the ground On approach of the night. Smile today; For when the sun is set, There is no more time To meet goals unmet. Smile today As the daylight dims; You can smile no more Once the night begins. Smile today. |
