Great use of an oxymoron (diversely universal) in your one line poem! Yes, it's universal because we humans do respond with laughter but it's diverse because we do laugh at different things due to cultural differences. Best wishes in the contest.

That's true. No matter what language a person speaks, everyone understands laughter. That and crying are universal. Good luck in the contest.

This is an excellent most uplifting one line poem GM. For some reason your word choices made me think of animals laughing too, and they most certainly do that although some are quieter about it than others.

Best of luck to you with the Contest Committee. :))

    Thank you for the review and compliments. At this point any ribbons and prizes are secondary to keeping my promise to my mom to complete a book dedicated to her and my Wife. Blessings to you and your family.

What a sweet, upbeat poem in a single line, with a joyful picture to complement it. It is nice to see a happy poem for a change with so much sorrow and darkness.

Very nicely put and a lovely picture to match the good thought you have in your poem. It reminds me of Disneyland's "It's a Small World After All." Good luck in the contest.
