Children Laughing

pebbles crumble underfoot
as fragrant flowers bloom
her voice is imminent
he holds her hand
with sunny days woven into song
sprinting through violets on tippy toes
softly strumming that classical tune
the brooks bubble with
children laughing

  • I like the imagery in this. It is very very good indeed. I can see why this won a trophy.  A very beautiful piece of writing indeed. Keep writing.

      I'm happy that it reminded you of childhood, that was what I had intended.

    This seems to me like it's describing a variety of images that look like laughter, and at the same time to express a lot of pleasant memories and feelings that are evoked by the sound.
    Very beautifully described. Thank you for entering.
