A SMILE CONNECTS US by Carol Hall
A smile’s as quiet As a breath of air. It says hello, ‘m here…you’re there. If you’re feeling friendly, Then a friend I’ll be. A smile connects us, You and me.
A smile’s as simple As a moon in space. It fills a room, It lights a face. It’s a kind of message Anyone can send. A smile connects us, Friend to friend.
This planet sometimes seems a lonely world, As we go traveling to find things we seek. Try to remember it’s our only world And a smile can be the language Anyone can learn to speak.
A smile is stronger Than a bridge of steel. It says the kindly Things we feel. And it’s easy giving, And the gift is free. A smile connects us, A smile connects us, A smile connects us, You and me.
