Remember is a bit of nostalgia worked into some cool rhymes. It is Never Enough is an optimistic glance at what the future may hold when we show love and support to others.

- This is another original piece of work by @madevi - a senryu with the perfect meter and number of 'on', in both Dutch and English languages. voor jou. A short masterpiece that grabs the heart strings, impressing on the reader a deep an memorable expression of love.

- April by @oculussensori is a seasonal piece of rhyming verse that is bound to motivate.
