Here is a poem that my brother wrote for some kind of contest... I thought it was pretty good, Tell me if you think it is good.

QUOTE
You have a smile that lights the world,
Shining from within,
Breaking out between the clouds
That form the skin of self.

Lucky we, to live nearby
That unpretentious sun,
To share its fire, to feel its love,
To know its warmth so well.

Just as the sun's sweet liquid joy
Is captured in the wine,
So with us your happiness
Is captured in our lives.

I think the second and fourth lines of each stanza (term?) should have a bit of a rhyme to it, like the last one. Not rhyming persay, but the same sounds. (i.e. wine and lives compared to sun and well). Other than that it's not too bad.

That was a great poem, but, my only other comment, is that it didn't seem to have a title. I'f there is one, please name, it, i'f not, strangle your brother till he gives you one! tongue.gif (j/k)

There is a title smile.gif

It's called... You Have a Smile that Lights the World. Hence the name of the topic.
