A smile is a flame

Out of womb and into the light our soul goes

Into empty vessel for our mother’s love flows

But will it be enough kindness? Who knows?

Kind or wicked, our path is one we chose

In a world indifferent to suffering we live 

Don’t ignore the pain. No, help and give

In this grand experiment love and forgive

A smile is a flame that melts the hardest ice

Courage and grit the surest way to paradise
