Smile

She smiled at a sorrowful stranger.1

the smile seemed to make him feel better.2

he remembered past kindnesses of a friend3

and wrote him a thank you letter.4

the friend was so pleased with the thank you that he left a large tip after lunch.5

the waitress,surprised by the size of the tip,bet the whole thing on a hunch.6

The next day she picked up her winnings,7

and gave part to a man on the street.8

the man on the street was gratful;for two days he'd had nothing to eat.9

After he finsihed his dinner,he left for his small dingy room.10

(he didn't know at that moment that he might be facing his room.)11

On the way he picked up a shivering puppy and took him home to get warm.12

The puppy was very grateful to be in out the storm.13

That night the house caught on fire.the puppy barked the alarm.14

he barked'til he woke the whole household and saved everybody from harm.15

One of the boys that he rescued grew up to be President.16

All this because of a simple smile that hadn't cost a cent.17

    Very sweet! I loved this story. Very well written, it was like a "Pay it Forward" kind of thing. Its funny how one simple thing can set off a chain of events that no one noticed.

    Interesting. I like the internal rhyme in it - simple yet effective. The short title sums up the whole poem. Im interesting in hearing what you where thinking of when you wrote this.
