Today's word is "schlemiel" ... shluh-MEEL ... Slang. an awkward and unlucky person for whom things never turn out right. (Dictionary.com)
Smile
There are jesters and schlemiels,
There are jokers and sad clowns,
There are those who know that life
Is no good if you just frown.
So wake to the magic all around,
Smell the coffee and the roses,
Let go of the unhappy world,
The stuffiness and poses.
Things look different in this place,
Where good takes center stage,
Where God speaks life into your heart,
And there's no more need to rage.
