It's not a poem

or a song

it causes you to dance

all day long

it's not a book

or a thing

but it makes you happy

in the sun

it's not magic 

or a thing

it's friendship

it makes you want to sing

@Cyber_Hippos Hey, great poem! It is not your fault about the title, it's the way TI does it. The way to fix it is to go to edit the article and edit the title and voilá, the title is fixed!
