The New Year
began
with a bang

leave disappointments
and pain in the past
remember
not to sweat
the small stuff
the big stuff
is bigger than one can imagine

today
begins with a new outlook
step into each day
with confidence
make positivity
your theme
your song
your mantra

smile
smile from the heart
look in the mirror
smile

smiles are the virus
you can spread
they are contagious
smile

now
smile into the New Year
