Children's Laughter
The sound of children’s laughter
is refreshing to my ears,
and brings a smile to my day.
Even more than summer’s heat
I love the cacophony
of youth's innocence at play.
The scamper of tiny feet
fuels my enthusiasm,
for the frolics of summer.
It begins right after spring,
for much like nature, children
dance to another drummer.
As their vigor pumps my heart
I almost feel young again,
spry, without an ache or care.
Summer’s the season for fun,
suntans, and relaxation,
to me, it’s beyond compare.
