Dr. Murari Patodia
A smile is quite a funny thing -
It wrinkles up your face,
And when it’s gone you never find
It’s secret hiding place.
But far more wonderful it is
To see what smiles can do;
You smile at one, he smiles at you,
And so one smile makes two.
He smiles at someone since you smiled,
And then that one smiles back;
And that one smiles until in truth
You fail in keeping track.
And since a smile can do great good
By cheering hearts of care -
Let’s smile and smile and not forget
That smiles go everywhere.
A Smile
