a triolet
A smile is a meaningful gift,
even though it costs no money;
a moment gives a lift,
a smile is a meaningful gift.
A grin that passes swift
is not for that less sunny.
A smile is a meaningful gift,
even though it costs no money.

Dreamy
what beauty in these lines, echoed in the picture!
The three geese appear as a smily face in the sky,
and echoes in the lines " a smile is a meaningful gift"
I like this much, such a natural scene for Lyndon to enjoy!

Much time is spent in misery
With little cause that I can see
The world contains abundant grace
To bring a smile to every face
