A SMILE COSTS NOTHING

A smile costs nothing but gives much
It enriches those who receive
Without making poorer those who give
It takes but a moment,

But the memory of it sometimes
Lasts forever
None is so rich or mighty that
He can get along without it,
And none is so poor but that
He can be made rich by it

A smile creates happiness in the home,
Fosters good will in business,
And is the countersign of friendship
It brings rest to the weary,

Cheer to the discouraged,
Sunshine to the sad and it is natures
Best antidote for trouble
Yet it cannot be bought, begged,
Borrowed, or stolen, for it is
Something that is of no value
To anyone until it is given away.

Some people are too tired to give you a smile
Give them one of yours
As none needs a smile
So much as he who has no more to be give.
