The Poetess

It is easy enough to be pleasant, 
When life flows by like a song, 
But the man worth while is one who will smile, 
when everything goes dead wrong.

For the test of the heart is trouble,
And it always comes with the years, 
And the smile that is worth praises of the earth 
is the smile that shines through tears.

Ella Wheeler Wilcox
