Woman Smile

Picture the sky without the stars above,
or a forest without trees.
Picture a person without a friend to love,
or an ocean without a breeze.

Picture a birthday without presents,
or a playground without a child.
But the saddest picture there is to see,
is a woman's face without a smile.

The face of a woman was made to smile,
and thereby she is blessed.
Above the creatures of field and stream,
the birds and all the rest.

A woman is just a little lower,
than the angels in the sky.
The reason is in her smile,
it's there her beauty lies.
