There is a great distance
Between happy and sad.
A great sojourn it is betwixt
Sullen and glad.
How long is this distance
Ever so great?
Is it longer than the night
When it is called "late"?
The difference may seem small,
But small things are at the core of chaos.
A butterfly flaps his wings in France,
And under water, Louisiana's lost.
But this small and great thing
We have known for a while:
That the distance between happy and sad
Is simply put: a smile.
