What Makes Me Smile 2
Poetry Contest
Sponsored by: Karen Jones 

Story Pin-bilde

It's a strange thing around a smile Most smiles are created by other smiles A friendly smile is as a warm ray of sunshine - accept it as a gift A time when our life suddenly becomes different Show us your most lovely smile - accept it as a gift A soul that blossoms - the tender feeling of experiencing “being seen” - accept it as a gift There are plenty of special reasons to smile The positive effects will evolve along with your journey - accept it as a gift

This makes me smile! You're right a smile is contagious, and it is a gift! I especially like "the tender feeling of being see" - a gift indeed!
