A Smile Renews The Spirit

Over the last weekend, I came across a beautiful poem and want to share it with all:
The Smile
by, Cathy Jameson
The smile-the reflection of emotion.
The smile-the mirror to the soul.
The smile-causes a chain reaction.
The smile-music made physical.
The simle-sometimes straight, crooked, sometimes esay sometimes difficult.
The smile-sometimes with laughter, sometimes without.
The smile-an invitation.
The smile-communication at its best.
The smile-the first impression.
The smile-subject of painters, musicians, photographers, dental artists.
The smile-immortalized by literary compositions.
The smile-signature of thespians throughout time.
The smile-missed if absent, welcome if present.
The smile-God's gift to humanity as a way of expressing love.
The smile-agift of love you give to yourself and to each other.
In my office, every smile of every patient is of most importance to me and my staff. Your smile makes our day and brings light into our life. We care about how you feel when you smile. We care and want to help if there are reasons you are not happy with your smile. We care and want every person to have the opportunity to have a healthy life, along with a healthy and confident smile. We look forward to seeing you and your beautiful smile in our office. We care about you and we are here to help in any way.

I love this poem! I first read this in the clinic of my dentist (Rock Hill). It was written in the corner of his whiteboard, and I read it to pass time while I was having my teeth cleaned. I should tell my friend's dentist (Tega Cay-based) to post this in his clinic, too. Thanks for this!
