Wake up with a smile
it’ll brighten your day,
the more bigger the smile
the happier you’ll stay
This little phrase
is something I would normally tell
but early one morning
a new thought rang a bell
I woke up one day
with the early morning light
and saw a little bird singing –
it was a most beautiful sight
This bird outside my window
was most happy and carefree,
it whistled and it chirped
as loud as can be
This little bird
gave a new meaning to my life –
“Let happiness rule your day
not your worries, not your strife”
As I continued to watch,
the bird left without a trace
leaving me with a memory
and a message in its place
So I ventured into the day
with a smile and good cheer
reassuring myself
that the bird of happiness is near
I did my best throughout the day
to spread happiness around,
this new trait of the little bird
in me now is found.
Spreading happiness is much needed these days. I love this poem!
