What a wonderful poem
I agree Tom, there is nothing quite like seeing kids being what they are. They have energy I can only dream of LOL
They are like everyready batteries!
A pleasure to read and a comfort to know that people like you still find the greatest pleasure from the most ordinary everyday things that we take for granted.
Kindest regards Trimple:)

Thank you trample. Your words are so encouraging.
My daughters in the hospital having a baby today, so I won't likely get anything more written.

A beautiful poem. Well written and a great message. Children are so carefree and can become so self amused, especially outside where they are free to run
and yell without restrictions. Good presentation. Robin :)

Another nice triolet, my friend. It is true how these little folks can lift your spirits. They are carefree and young, not a worry. Nice to be a kid. :) ~Yona

I know that you are not the lonely old person!!! Nice poem. Children can always raise the spirits when they are happy and playing. When they are arguing and fighting...well that's another matter! Great job. Be blessed, Jude

Your poem and your notes reminds me of how my 86 year old mother just brightens up when we have little ones around the house. Little ones as you write can, steal the heart. An
