What Could He Be Smiling About???

Contributed by Kimmie_mac on Saturday, 26th July 2003 @ 11:05:00 AM in AEST
Topic: Lifepoems



See the little boy down the street,
The one with no shoes on his feet,
What could he be smiling about.

When was the last time he did eat,
Or had some kind of something sweet,
What could he be smiling about.

When was the last time he slept on clean sheets,
and wore pants with no holes in the seat,
What could he be smiling about.

When was the last time in winter had heat,
When was the time he hasn't been beat.
What could he be smiling about.

The simple things, a stranger's smile, is a treat,
Something so simple to him is neat,
That's what he is smiling about.

This poem should be pasted on mirrors
for every morning's observation..
-----------------------------------------
Two kinds of people live on the earth
Those that haven't and those of worth,
Those that haven't need special care,
From Authors and poets and people aware.
