Smile

Expect to stumble 
prepare to fall 
plan your retreat 
and never expect 
to triumph quickly 
Those things worth
never come easy 
Imagine a tree
just standing there 
against the wind
isn’t ever enough 
it should be 
but it’s not 
it’s got to 
sprout and shed
spread and share
never knowing where
Just like smiles
Smile at someone 
see it root
and then blossom 
into a tree
of its own
