Poetry by Raymond Westwood

And When You Smile
And when you smile the world’s a happy place
It makes the bad times disappear
There’s always good cheer for everyone
And when you smile there’s gladness in the air
It’s something that we all can share
The world’s a happy place for every-one
And when you smile you bring out the sunshine
Every time that it rains it brightens up
Each day that we live
And when you smile all the while
That you feel a little sad you’ll feel better
For it in the end

Sights for Sore Eyes
Sights for sore eyes are like flowers, trees, sunrises
Yes such sights for sore eyes they bring joy
To my heart’s desires
Sights for sore eyes are just like a moonlit night
Yes such sights for sore eyes they bring peace
To my heart’s delight
Sights for sore eyes they are simply heaven sent
Yes such sights for sore eyes they give rest
To my heart’s content
Sights for sore eyes are like rainbows in the sky
Yes such sights for sore eyes simply set my heart alight
