Exceptional

Dear Brooke; perfect in all ways! A perfect smile, perfect eyes to match, just cheeky enough to match the poem with life and joy to capture and frame the lovely words. Great one! Vance

This is a terrific creation that seems to suggest how nice life would be if we could just all let go and be happy to be alive and to know others. Nice.

He is adorable what a cutie patootie. Yes I agree the half smile is mischievous, flirtatious. Like they say smile and the world smiles with you. After reading it I can say I have a full smile. Thank you for sharing. :) Terrie

This is a sweet poem written in sparkling rhythm befitting the joyous tone of the verse.I really liked that clever ending where two halves a smile set a whole one free. Just a great, inventive notion to complete the read.

Hi Brooke,
he's such a cheeky looking little rascal... he's so free in front of a camera.

What a wonderful fun write from our number one; a write about her number one and the one that puts the 'whole' smile in her heart... just beautiful.

With our thoughts we create,
the view that make our heart sing,
James xx

This is a fun, sunny poem. This guy has grandma wrapped around his little finger. Lovely rhyme scheme such a clever idea for a poem. I like the last line, "set your whole smile free."

Brooke, I love the upbeat little moral of the poem, and I love the half-smile on the face of the little boy. No wonder it's your favorite of Sawyer's expressions. The name "Ezekiel" is an interesting-sounding name with a good rhythm for the poem. Love, Jeanie

"what happens when you use both halves
and set your whole smile free" .... that makes me smile!!

A sweet, sweet poem conveying the power of the almighty smile! Lovely rhyme and flow, and of course, such a cute-as-a-button pic of Sawyer to complement your write.

Very nice, Brooke!

Connie :)
