Brave Sweet Smile
LaVonda and her husband
Face Fate with a Brave Sweet Smile It is easy to stride where the road is wide,
And the pavement is firm and fine,
It is easy to skip, with a good still clip,
Where the road is a long white line,
It is jolly good fun down the hill to run
If there isn’t a chance to fall,
But a man is “true blue” if he just plugs through
where there isn’t a path at all.It is easy to grin, when the cash rolls in,
If your life is a cloudless day;
It is easy to prance, at the costless dance
If the fiddler receives his pay.
It is easy to sing, till the rafters ring
If there is joy in the heart of the song;
But give me the fellow that doesn’t show yellow
When everything goes dead wrong.So remember friends, until this world ends,
Until God should reign as King Supreme;
Until Day and Night makes its last long flight
And this world is a shattered dream
Remember your frown, pulls the next man down;
Lend a hand, make his life worth while.
Give a “bearing face”, to the human race,
And face Fate with a brave sweet smile.– LaVonda Evans
