She opened the door stepped outside and for the first time in days smiled, a smile like nourishing face cream spread all over. The postman on his bike stopped, greeted and delivered the letter, her smile like a tiny frog jumped into his mail bag and he found himself smiling, rare for the start of his day.

Then the smile slid down the handle of a pram coming to rest on a baby's nose, instant burst of giggles like invisible paint coated the bus stop. An old man smiled, the first in ten years, dormant muscles ached with stirring. Froggy was pleased with his morning's performance and with a final encore parachuted ever so lightly landing on the breast of a pretty young lady who smiled up at the sky.
