Emotional Notions


Laugh ~   burdens will become half
Frown ~   more muscles bring you down
Cry  ~   sorrows flow from your eyes
Smile ~   adds beauty to your style
Stare ~   you're surprised unaware
Hug ~  warm love to keep you snug

Dear Jo, I like this so much. Good reminders. I might print it off and put it on my fridge to read each morning as I sit with my coffee. To me, it is a pretty, sweet, kind and true poem. I agree with Deb, it is a "feel good" write. It is so very clever.

That was a very tasty bite Jo. You'll do well in the contest. I love what you did with each first word, giving us an experience of how it will manifest or be felt in our physical state. Thank you for sharing. A poet friend, Bill A smile and a hug for you today! I'd made this one a favorite!
