A Ton of Smiles


One ton of smiles could change the world. 

A little more joy, and a few kind words,

Could transform a world once sour and curl'ed.

 

I dream of a time when for twenty four hours,

All people were generous, kind, and pleasant.

And that we could listen to the whispers of external powers.

 

The powers of evil and sadness could be temporarily dispelled.

Happiness would abound, and actualization brought to view,

If only all members of this world might believe and be compelled!
