Smile

If you have suffered many things
Just remember when you where small,
Swinging on swings
Playing with balls.

Then a smile suddenly appears 
Don't cry!
No more tears!
Just smile, for a while...

This is a very wise piece of advice, Elena! Sometimes, we tend to forget to look back on our childhood and remember the fun yet simple stuff that makes us smile-- thanks so much for the smiley reminder! :) I'm glad that Charma told me about you-- keep on writing and developing your talent :) I believe you can continue to write wonderful poems as you grow older! Hone this beautiful talent of yours!

SoSo, cute...Elena, Welcome to Poetry soup, I hope you enjoy the community. Here, you will find friendly poets who enjoy supporting one another. I myself, enjoy reading and commenting those who want to be read. The only time I give constructive criticism is when a poet desires it. However, if for some reason the poem is not my field I will guide you to someone who is more qualified than I. Stop by and read one of my poems if you like. My poems are not perfect, but I have a feeling you might like one. I encourage you to check out the contest page and read to receive comments. Tell me a little about your poetic skills if you like. It will be my pleasure to follow and read every poem you post from here on :) We are Lucky To Have you. Your New Poet Friend @-> LINDA <-@"
