Smile, smile it can take a long way than a gun Smile away worries and smile and fun Smile and drink life to the lees Smile until death from life flees Smile all busy bees, Smile all children with frisbees Smile flies united like geese, smile be life a block of cheese Smile no matter you are Japenese, Chinese dabbinf on face mayonnaise Smile in similes, smile as smileys, smile as gypsies, smile in poesies Smile in agonies, ecstasies, fallacies, jealousy, piracies, fancies Smile for life`s ideosyncracies

Haha, a quirky yet meaningful little poem :) Reminds me of Aesop's fable 'The Fox and the Grapes', in which a fox, unable to reach a bunch of ripe grapes high up on a vine, dismisses them as sour and unpleasant to eat anyway. In this case, it is almost like the man you spoke to assumed your smile was fake simply because he himself had nothing to smile about. I just have one question...did such an incident actually happen to you? In any case, keep on writing - and smiling - my fellow poet! -LC
