Analysis of Make Me Smile



Days go by,
I feel worse and worse.
I write a poem...
Soon after, 'Grandmother's Wink' is published.
Smile swept upon my face,
As expected from.
But this is different.
Marvelously different.
Thank you,East.
I appreciate all the times you
Make me smile.

I'm 13. I love Journey to the Past, Hey There Delilah, and Once Upon a December.

Jackson Brown, Jr."Our street corners keep secrets, and our road signs only suggest, never deciding for us, never knowing if the destination to which they lead is where we truly belong." ~ Alex GaskarthAwesome youtube video(s) of the week: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dCmRIFVH4O4&feature=player_embedded http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FV-HPOHu8mY more…
