Each New Year holds a promise
Of wonderful things and beautiful dreams,
Rules to make, regulations to break
Something to give, something to take.

We usually start off with a bang,
Hoping to make a change,
But half way through ….
Our resolves draw a blank!

Something different we can do,
That needs no effort from you,
The world becomes a friendlier place
It enhances the look of every face.

S - M - I - L - E
Is the Hap Happy Key
That can open the heart of men,
That changes a foe to a friend.

Keep smiling for smile's sake,
But not with a smile that is fare,
Let's decide to smile at everyone,
You'll sure have loads of fun.

Be the first to smile today,
At people you encounter on the way,
That's the way to make more friends,
'The Smile' will start a brand new trend.

A smile shows that you care.
It's a great feeling to share.
It sends a message to the other,
That a smile brings Love & Peace together!

Keep Smiling - and 2009 will smile back at you.
