Slow down and wait for me
Don’t frown though your burden’s heavy
I have one more beam for you to carry
So shoulder the thing and don’t tarry
In lightening my load by giving it to you
Carrying it will lighten yours too
Its weight, inverse to its size
How great I didn’t realize
The more you give it away
The more certainly, it’ll stay
Though not money, it's its own pay
It’s a smile that will carry you on your way

Yes one's smile makes light of many a burden and reflects inside us as we smile from deep inside. What better displays our enjoyment of life?
Thank you for your review and comment. A smile to you
Amazing piece! When you're going through hardships, being able to lie on another's shoulder is such a blessing. To have someone who guides you through pain even when things get tough, is what we may need the most. Nicely written! 👍
A smile can be so important in our lives, I smile at everyone.
