Words have in them to mesmerize
When tied with smiles – it is a prize!

Such warmth even when winter cold
Comes after you to pester, scold.

This team of smiling words can dream
In whispers soft with not a scream.

They also enter hearts and change
Their way and ways and thus the range

Of happiness that forms the truth
Of life to safely keep its youth.

This team, that’s yours, I wish, creates
More teams, more smiles and many greats!

This chain, once formed, will simply be
The base, the root, of wisdom tree.
