You Might As Well Smile

Problems Arenโ€™t Going Anywhere

๐Ÿ˜Š ๐Ÿ˜Š ๐Ÿ˜Š

My poems donโ€™t always make much sense.

At times, theyโ€™re just for fun.

I write when I feel silly

To bring smiles to everyone.

๐Ÿ˜Š ๐Ÿ˜Š ๐Ÿ˜Š

If my poetry might make you laugh,

Or just make you scratch your head,

At least it isnโ€™t boring,

Or filling you with dread.

๐Ÿ˜Š ๐Ÿ˜Š ๐Ÿ˜Š

It doesnโ€™t always deal with life,

And the problems that we see.

Sometimes you just might shake your head,

And wonder whatโ€™s wrong with me.

๐Ÿ˜Š ๐Ÿ˜Š ๐Ÿ˜Š

But at least I say with confidence,

For just a little while,

If you read some of my poetry,

It just might make you smile.
