The Return of Fun

When we find ourselves having fun again,
Of the kind that:
Wriggles our toes.
Tickles our nose,
Wiggles our hips,
And Jiggles our mind into remembering,
The fun we once had,
And can have again,
When the right people are around,
To inject the fun back into our day.

We will know no bounds,
With the fun people around,
With the safe people around, 
Reason enough to let out, 
Only cheerful sounds,
From lips that had forgotten,
How fun sounds,
To ears that long to hear again the sound,
Of of fun and laughter in the air.

Only safe people need come around. Too late to take any risks. Playful - now lets have a real good chuckle.

That's the spirit. A good chuckle is proven to be good for ones health. I belong to a board games group here in Wainuiomata a cool place to be. It is a suburb of Lower Hutt in Wellington Region of NZ. Keeps my brain sharp. Board games that are quite complex are huge over here. Went to a convention in Wellington, Was great. Hope your day is going Well David in NZ
