Smiling is contagious,/ you catch it like the flu,/ When someone smiled at me today,/ I started smiling too./ I passed around the corner,/ and someone saw my grin/ When he smiled, I quickly 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 (Find the first stanza's rhyme scheme) -Anonymous
