I recently received a beautiful poem from a CoJ reader named Katharine on Instagram that truly touched my heart.

Teodoro Luna’s Two Kisses
by Alberto Ríos

Mr. Teodoro Luna, in his later years, found a unique way of expressing affection towards his wife. Instead of traditional kisses, he would lift his eyebrows in a subtle but meaningful gesture that only she could truly understand and appreciate.

This poetic act of love was their quiet exchange, capturing moments of tenderness and joy as they navigated life together.
