The magic smile was so magic that when it smiled, it lit up the entire room. It glowed so warmly that it melted snow and boiled a kettle. The magic smile was so magic that when it smiled, iciles fell from the rooftops and puddles formed on the pavements. The magic smile was so magic that it reached from ear to ear. The magic smile was so magic that it could light a candle and switch on a light. The magic smile was so magic that when it smiled, the temperature of entire house raised by thirty degrees. In the summer, people soon became sun - tanned when the magic smile smiled. The magic smile laughed so much that it almost fell of it's face. Ha ! Ha ! It smiled and smiled and smiled some more, so much so that it picked everything else off the floor. The magic smile smiled morning, noon and night. So magic that when it smiled, it made everyone else smile, too. It smiled so much that when the postman who came to deliver letters at breakfast left the house, his letters were smiling, too. So magic that when the newspaper boy dropped off the Daily Drizzle, the normally dreary stories soon became much more cheerful. The magic smile made the milkman smile, too ... so much that his milk bottles rattled in the milk cart and his strawberry milkshake turned even more pink. The magic smile smiled at the garden, the flowers bloomed and the grass grew happily greener. When the magic smile smiled at the trees - there were twice as many apples and more pears - the bunches of grapes' mood lifted, too. The sparrows chirped chirpily and the even the caterpillars in the ground were in higher spirits after the magic smile smiled. The plumber, usually a miserable chap, called to fix the broken taps - he was singing joyously when he left. The magic smile smiled so much that lunch cooked itself - even the washing up - which can make even the most good - temepered person sad - washed up all by itself merrily. Thank heavens for magic smiles like this - on days that are blue - the magic smile keeps smiling through and through. Magic.
