If You Are Feeling Sad Poem by Francis Duggan

If you are feeling sad few wish to know of you
Laugh and the World laughs with you remains ever true
Few do wish to know of those who are feeling down
They do not have many friends the sad sacks of the town
The happy person is the one that everyone wishes to know
Since he or she does have the bright inner glow
Wherever happy people are joy is to be found
As they carry it with them and share it around
At parties and social gatherings the sad one does seem out of place
You do not win any friends with a sad look on your face
The one with the broad smile wins friends every day
That happiness is infectious it does seem this way
You are on your own when you are feeling down
Few wish to know of the sad sacks of the town.
