Another Smile

Another choice gets made —
But its the process, not
The choice, itself

From every corner store,
To every house, and
Onto every shelf —

For lo, we love the giant stage,
The spotlight bright,
The power great

But may discover, as we age,
The moments small we should
Appreciate —

Another smile is passed —
And yes, I noticed, me there,
Passing by

And it now lives in me:
So maybe you’ll have one today

Or try
