The Power of a Smile

I spoke recently at a strategy meeting for a client. After the inspiring and open sharing experience among the participants, I began working on Poems from the Heart - Volume 2. Volume 1 is available at amazon.com or through my website www.nikkidicaro.com.

Here's an excerpt from Volume 2:

The Power of a Smile

Sometimes it hard
When life leaves us scarred
But is it lasting
Or are we fasting

From the pleasures
That come in measures
Those little treasures

Do we avoid
The chance to be happy
And cry and be sappy

Because it’s too easy
To be light and breezy
Would you rather be queasy?

We love to complain
Hoping all that disdain
Will ease the pain

But why make it yours
To not use the oars
To paddle beyond
Where life isn’t fond

Start to make subtle change
And you’ll broaden your range
And it won’t feel strange
When you smile!
