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 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!
