When She Smiles
When She Smiles
The world turns a little slower
Sometimes it even seems to stand still
She makes me happy
And I don't even know her
But I'm hoping that someday I will
When she smiles
Birds sing their songs happily
Love songs in a universal key
Music in the early morning skies
I want to sing
And want you to sing with me
As we listen to the world harmonize
The sky seems a little bluer
Love, a little truer
Life, a little newer
When she smiles
She makes everything feel better
Like a comfortable sweater
That's been around awhile
When she smiles
It's like chicken soup
When you have a cold
Like a young girls wink
When you're feeling old
Like the warm hug from a child
When she smiles
When she smiles

Poetry: Smiles
Exchanging Smiles.
They say a smile
is contagious -
I believe it is true.
'Cause today you
sent a smile my
way
by A.J. Farmer
I look around and I see
Many people smiling at me
Different people of different places
All of which have different faces
Smiles the universal sign and language
A real smile can light up a room
A fake one can give you the creeps
Don't fake
How sweetly you express your intentions you crocodile,
With that grin that intents to sample once again Captain Cook.
The
Smile is such a beautiful thing
It makes you happy and want to sing
It cheers the one who gives
And also the one who receives
