Power of Smile

The Power of a Smile: A Universal Grace

By Pavitradevi Published 2 years ago 1 min read

In a world of shadows, where hearts might hide,

A simple gesture turns the tide.

No grand display, no ornate guile,

Just the gentle power of a smile.

A beacon in the darkest night,

A smile brings warmth, a soft, pure light.

It bridges chasms, mends the fray,

A silent promise of a brighter day.

In moments fraught with doubt and fear,

A smile whispers, "I am here."

It speaks of hope, of strength unseen,

Of dreams that dance in fields of green.

It travels far, from face to face,

A universal, tender grace.

No need for words, no language learned,

In its embrace, all hearts are turned.

It’s in the laughter of a child,

In kindness offered, meek and mild.

A silent hymn, a love-filled song,

A smile makes right where there is wrong.

It heals, it mends, it lifts, it soothes,

A balm that every soul behooves.

In joy and sorrow, through every trial,

Life’s greatest gift—the power of a smile.

So let it shine, let it be free,

A simple act of unity.

For in this world, both wild and wild,

There’s nothing quite as powerful as a smile.
