Smile by Barbara Hauck
Here is a poem that caught my attnetion in a book called Chicken Soup for the Teenage Souls. Here is the poem and I hope that you will enjoy it the same why I did. And it really did put a smile on my face.
SMILE
She smiled at a sorrowful stranger
The smile seemed to make him feel better.
He remembered past kindnesses of a friend
And wrote him a thank -you letter.
And the friend was so pleased with the thank-you
That he left a large tip after lunch.
The waitress, surprised by the size of the tip,
Bet the whole thing on a hunch.
The nexted day she picked up her winnings,
And gave part to a man on the street.
The man on the street was grateful;
For two days he had nothing to eat.
After he finished his dinner,
he left for his small dingy room.
( He didnt know at the moment
that he might be facing his doom.)
On the way he picked up a shivering puppy
And took him home to get warm.
The puppy was grateful
To be in out of the storm
That night the house caught on fire
The puppy barked the alarm.
He barked ’till he woke the whole house hold
And saved everyone from harm.
One of the boys that he rescued
Grew up to be President
All this because a simple smile
That hasent cost a cent
