In a "Granny and the Golden Bridge"
Claribel Alegria's Granny and the Golden Bridge is set against the backdrop of the civil war El Salvador in the 1980s.
In it, Manuel tells a story about his insane grandmother, an vivacious old woman who spends all day cooking to regale the government troops stationed around the Golden Bridge. The bridge is latterly blown up by rebels, and it is expose that they had received intelligence about the bridge's cover from Manuel's Grandmother. She dress up herself as a brothel-owner to escape capture, and the last image of her. In the story is when she is paddling a canoe upriver, carrying munitions for the rebel forces.
Jack Aqueroses's "Agua Viva; a Sculpture by Alfred Gozalez; tells the story of Fifty Fredo, a mentally disturbed hermit who control scrap metal and hasn't shaved or bathed in fives years. Aqueros uses long, run-on sentences to convey Fredo's manic, compulsive inner world, a world as impenetrable as the scrap iron creations he builds in his workshop. A violent encounter with some neighborhood boys is his first human contact of any kind in years, and it seems to be the first step towards returning to society.

Not quite there! :)
Explanation:
"If you have a natural talent like dancing, singing, touching your nose to your tongue or anything you could make someone smile. We all need it this time of the year."
You see, first off; you can't physically touch your nose to your tongue, it should be "Touching your tongue to your nose". :)
I would add in the phrase, "Such as" instead of "Like" to make it ring better!
Next I would change "or anything you could make someone smile" to: "or anything you could use to make someone smile". Using the words "USE" and "TO" help get the meaning across.
"If you have a natural talent such as dancing, singing, touching your tongue to your nose or anything you could use to make someone smile; we can all use it this time of the year."
In this case, it may flow better! :)
