Twinkling lights and dancing children
Sounds of happiness drifting through the air
They want nothing
Only to play
Oftentimes, this gets them into trouble
Beauty unknown
And usually unseen
As some put together boquets of flowers
For the misses of the house
Symbols of love?
Author notes
I have actually written two poems with 7 letter "f" words that exceeded the line limit, though my "Forlorn" one was good (not that I can remember exactly what the poem is called now.) This one wasn't my best, though.

This has some very nicely done imagery throughout. Children often conjure some images, as does love. Lovely piece.
