The Smile by Blake

There is a Smile of Love
 And there is a Smile of Deceit
 And there is a Smile of Smiles In which these two Smiles meet.
  And there is a Frown of Hate
 And there is a Frown of disdain
 And there is a Frown of Frowns Which you strive to forget in vain. 
 For it sticks in the Heart's deep Core 
And it sticks in the deep Back bone. 
And no Smile that ever was smil'd But only one Smile alone. 
 That betwixt the Cradle and Grave It only once Smil'd can be, 
But when it once is Smile'd There's an end to all Misery.
