Admirable rhyme, rhythm, theme.You tried to understand the tears in which is to see the world entire: this means talent, good imagery and a tender soul. I also tried to understand the childish joy (Poem of Joey) as well an imagined autistic one: Actually, they are mixed tears and smiles under the same hope: The real Ethics really begins when: No woman cries (no war), no one died because hungry and perhaps our wrinkles will sometime show but the place where have been just smiles.
