Smile

Something happened,
Which made me smile,
Yes made me smile,
My eyes lit up,
And blood rushed softly to my cheeks,
My lips aroused in a purse a wee bit,
And my cheek muscles all spread out,
And electric current ran from me to others,
As if by infection all felt the same,
And began to smile,
It lasted for minutes before we were shut back to normal,
Since it was such an experience,
Why can’t such things happen every moment,
Which makes us smile and feel more potent.
