A Smile For All

Smiling is infectious
You can catch it like the flu
When someone smiled at me today
I started to smile too

I walked around the corner
And someone caught my grin
We I saw them smiling
I relized I passed it on to them

I thought long and hard about that smile
And realized its worth
How a smile just like mine
Could travel around the Earth

So when your down do not frown
And think of all the funny clowns
So let's start the day with a smile
Don't let it go undetected
Lets all start an epidemic quick
And get the world infected

Very nice write. I like something optimistic like this. The idea of a smile spreading around the world is particularly fun. Elton Camp

Welcome to the site. I know you will like it here. This is not bad for a first submission. You have nice wording and rhyming in this entry. For grammatical correctness purposes, change "quick" to "quickly" in your next to last line.
