Loose Magic Pee-a-boo, I see you... Got your nose, and not your toes. Skipping rocks, and bubbles in the park. Eye contact from across the room, notes passed in study hall... hearts that have wings, and bells that ring. Puppy dogs, with wet licks, kitty cats, and purrs..., no ticks. Learning to swim, hunting for frogs... playing with pollywogs. Picnics, and fireworks, a first kiss a second chance, a wedding dance. Babies being born, grandmothers cooking cookies, grandpas riding tractors in the fields. Life is good when we let it be, all the mysteries left free.

Delightful write. So many ways we can enjoy life if we decide not to bother about society

Oh, so right on target, Ann. I am a firm believer that we create and recognize our own happiness. I know people who are happy in the face of unbelievable tragedies! Good writing, my friend.
