Facial Grimaces

A facial grimace

shows the mood

you are in.

A movement of muscles

making you smile

or smirk

with an angry glare

or a happy stare.

Smiling is being happy.

Smiling is feeling fun.

Smiling is positivity.

Smiling is grinning

just by moving 

the muscles

in your face.

A facial grimace

can be a slight grin

clearing the fog

and the negativity

from your mind

helping you to unwind.

Laughing is opening the mouth

to make a sound.

Laughing is feeling joy.

Laughing is being merry.

An easy movement

or sound

using your jaw

to move

up and down.

Laughter with a loved one

is powerfully enthralling.

Something to be done

even if you're down

and not having fun.

Facial grimaces of positivity

helping you smile

and feel less pain

will push the depression

far, far away.

Alas,

it might be the answer

to a positive life

if you work

those facial grimaces

each and every day.

An experiment to practice

until positivity returns.

A vast improvement

to lessen the agony

of an unhappy life.
