A Flower, A Kiss, A Smile

A flower, a kiss, a smile of love
Heartwarming gifts from up above
The hand of coldness disappears 
When we forget our chosen fears.

Just one experience of love
Gives hope and life in endless years
Of learning how to move our minds of stone
When many times we feel alone.

We are alone. The choice is ours
To offer a flower, a kiss, a smile
Is but the simple answer, for awhile
We search our minds in depth
We should find life a simple test.

When realization of the truth
Presents itself in all its youth
To all in age who still ask why
Just smile and love but do not cry

-Written by Cynthia Lennon, published in 1978
