Watch Children Laugh

With an open heart and a loving mind Affection flowing from my grateful pores, The sight that so beautifully spends my time, Children laughing and playing out of doors. Here I sit soaking in adoring sun, Children playing silly games in my drive, Having a world of good, clean fun Innocent hopefulness is so alive, Loving my catbird seat, watching them play. Dashing and darting, laughing with goodness. Revitalizes me in every way. Enthusiasm blatant must confess. Nostalgia sets in, remembering my youth. Leisurely days with my grandchildren here. Aware suddenly I’m long in the tooth. Urgent plea comes in from the youngest now. Grandma, you can play! You surely know how. Happiness Reigns, so take that Aunt Ruth!
