Smile

by The Masked Poet

February 11, 2014

During life you should be guile

and achieve your goal.

Be yourself and find your style.

Be kind and cleanse your soul

Share your life with someone for a while,

know each other and be one.

Never be in a state of denial,

just live your life and have fun

Remember to never be vile,

and when your days are at an end.

greet death...

with a smile.

<p>beautifully written. My only issue is that guile doesn't really work there as i think you intended, and sometimes poems can lose some eaning by adding a rhyme scheme. i would love to see a poem of yours without a rhyme scheme i know it is hard to branch out, and i really think you are a good poet and sometimes versatility can add persepcetive</p>
