A Poem by jenniewren (J.W. Bouwman)

hidden 
within the laugh lines
round my lips
and eyes
nestle
quite a few smiles
you alone 
have authored

This is really good, it's deep yet it gets to point =) Good job! I liked this.

The power of this piece is the understated, almost a through off, one complete sentence broken into 8 brief lines. Yet, it has a longer softness that lingers well after it's read. A very nifty piece of work with heart.

Perfectly worded! I love the connection between 'lines' and 'authored' and the tender feel of 'nestle'. An entire story told in 8 short lines. Excellent!

This type of milestone...I have never encountered before today. I know this isnt quite the point...but you made me think of widows and widowers as you explained how they can proclaim that they are not alone. You have truly opened my eyes...
wow...
