WATCH THE CORNERS
When you wake up in the morning of a chill and cheerless day And feel inclined to grumble, pout or frown, Just glance into your mirror and y_ou will quickly see. It's just because the corners of your mouth turn down. Then take this simple rhyme, Remember it in time, It's always dreary weather in countryside or town When you wake and find the corners of your mouth turned down.
If you wake up in the morning full of bright and happy thoughts And begin to count the blessings in your cup, Then glance into your mirror and "you will quickly sec It's all because the corners of your mouth turn up. Then take this simple rhyme, Remember all the time, There's joy a-plenty in this world to fill life's cup If you'll only keep the corners of your mouth turned up. — Exchange.
