A poem, lovely as a smile, entices me to pause a while. And let its verses warm my heart, as a brand new day gets its start. Hope runs rampant between its lines, avoiding emotional mines. Unaccustomed to words of joy, I'm like a child with a new toy. And garnering love from my soul, Faith returns to me what life stole. Inked upon the pages of time; This lovely smile sounds good in rhyme.

I like the range of your couplets from very simple (boy with new toy) to complex (emotional mines). I must remember to smile more often. Congratulations on your poem; kudos on your contest placement.

Someone once remarked if you smile at your enemies, they'll wonder what you're up to. I thought of this when I read your fine poem, Emile. You bring a smile to us on a regular basis, and we know what you are up to...writing poems!
