penpal: wonderful photo of a person laughing out loud. The lines show clearly that she was full of love and joy. She probably never took time for herself with moisture lotion and worked hard. Hope she had a large family. Great entry. flylikeaneagle

This is simply well said. I can relate through my mama in heaven and now even myself. The picture is priceless. This poem and picture captures life's aging wonderfully.

A simply exquisite 5-5-3 - poetry melding into art - who can really say where one ends and the other begins - not a syllable wasted - this one belongs in the winner's enclosure

Dear Mystery Writer,

I think you've done a super job of sharing a message in such a few amount of words. I like the message here -- the person you speak of seems to have chosen to laugh through life instead of cry - sometimes we forget it CAN be a choice. *smile*

You've also done a great job choosing an image to accompany this poem. The individual in the photo is precious. *smile*

Your syllable count is just right and now that I have read through all the entries, I'm pretty sure yours is my selection. I've got to check one more thing --

Thanks so much for sharing. Good luck!

Everything about this piece is beautiful - the title, the image, the black background that makes everything stand out, and the font is perfect. Thank you so much for sharing and good luck in the contest.

Well, this is an exceptionally beautiful portrait and I love it because of the aged hands and face. Such joy and beauty in those eyes, that smile. Your 3-5-3 does it an honor.

This is so true. If we had no lines, we would be plain plastic. We are human with flesh that is sculptured and etched through time into a thing of beauty. Lovely sentiments.
