Children Laughing

Can anything be more beautiful than the sound of
happy children?
Innocent of wars;
loving with open hearts.
Dreaming of grandeur;
renduring the madness of the world irrelevant.
Enjoying the simplest of things;
not consumed by profits.

Let us have the hearts of children.
All for one and one for all.
Uninhibited and free spirited;
guided by the goodness of our inner selves.
Having courage to believe anything possible;
incapacitating negativity.
No more beautiful sound in the world than
giggles of innocence.

This former elementary age teacher loves this picture of the laughter of children. Have a 6 month old grandson who is beginning to giggle and make sounds. As his mother says, he has discovered he has a voice. Delightful acrostic, Arlene.
