That Happiness Is Infectious Poem by Francis Duggan

That happiness is infectious only true for to say
And every happy person makes new friends every day
Those lacking in humor few of wish to know
One reason their friends in numbers never grow
A very old saying that's not hard to explain
Laugh and the World laughs with you as true does remain
Very happy people with some joy to spare
A little of their gift with others always willing to share
This morning i felt unhappy things were not going my way
But on the street meeting a friendly stranger brought some joy to my day
With a sense of warmth in her cheerful hello
She was one of those who had the inner glow
Quite a beautiful person in her charming way
She did help for to bring some joy to my day.
