Costless but costing


Costless but costing

Its given freely

Its costless but costing

Its comforts the weary

It does gladdens the sad

Stifles the angry man

 

Consoles the dejected

Whether good or bad

Rich or poor

Beggar or thief

Its free for  all

 

A device we still keep

When we give it away

When genuine it melts away

The ice of suspicion

frozen heart of mistrust and disbelieve

does it softens and melts

Brings relief and joy to many

 

A nonverbal device

That does make the appeal

“may we be friends”

A powerful communication tool for friends

Its like a juicy fluids

That creates sense of humor

And shows a sense of belonging

 

It’s does draws away tears of pain

As it keeps traces of tears of happiness

Its engulfs hatred

And blooms like the blossom of a flower

What is this powerful tool?

 A smile! A real smile
