Smile For You

"Smiling is infectious;
You catch it like the flu,
When someone smiled at me today,
I started smiling too.

I passed around the corner
And someone saw me grin;
When he smiled I realized
I'd passed it on to him.

I thought about that smile
Then I realized its worth,
A single smile, just like mine,
Could travel round the earth.

So if you feel a smile begin,
Don't leave it undetected;
Let's start an epidemic quick,
And get the world infected!"
~Unknown
