Good Time Rhyme

What though the day be gloomy and dark,
Smile just a little, and you strike a spark.
The spark will ignite and burst into flame-
The flame of a laugh, and more of the same
Will start up a fire which no one resents;
The stuff of which all joy consists.
So strike a spark by starting to smile,
And soon all about you will seem worthwhile!
