Hoping for the Sea

Dedicated to Fia…

Smile, though your heart is aching

Smile, even though it’s breaking

When there are clouds in the sky

You’ll get by…

If you smile

With your fear and sorrow

Smile and maybe tomorrow

You’ll find that life is still worthwhile

If you just…

Light up your face with gladness

Hide every trace of sadness

Although a tear may be ever so near

That’s the time you must keep on trying


Smile, what’s the use of crying

You’ll find that life is still worthwhile

If you just…


Smile, though your heart is aching

Smile, even though it’s breaking

When there are clouds in the sky

You’ll get by…


If you smile

Through your fear and sorrow

Smile and maybe tomorrow

You’ll find that life is still worthwhile

If you just smile…

That’s the time you must keep on trying

Smile, what’s the use of crying

You’ll find that life is still worthwhile

If you just smile…

    I just loved this poem this is exactly how i feel about life, life is too short to be sad so everyday i wake up and i smile at myself in the mirror then when i go out i find myself smiling at life. A smile is a good healer not just for yourself but for others it helps you feel good about yourself and others themselves.?????????

    Edde,
    You have no idea how much this means to me especially today. As young as you are you are an inspiration to ME. I will keep holding onto the hope of us walking along the shore without a care in the world. I love you, never even meeting you, I truly love you and thank God for you…Thank You for understanding and accepting me.
    xoxo
    Fia

    you know the other day i was doing just that walking bare foot through the surf just enjoying life the sun was shining the water was warm and i didn’t have a care in the world and all this would make a lot of people smile xoxo for me it’s the feel good factor and everybody should have something that makes them feel good. Xoxo
