Giggles are very good, and I just had a giggle reading your poem. Light hearted and fun, just what I needed after a weird morning.
The picture is beautiful, and what a lovely smile or more like a giggle maybe?

Thanks for sharing,

:) Liandra

I'm going to start calling your Mother Suss, LOL I really loved this poem for the rhyming. It really did remind of the Dr. Suss. And I'm sure I didn't spell it correctly. I'm writing a book so I have my fanstory book on hold and won't be posting for a while. But will continue to read you.

Yes, we can see he is having some fun with this delightful photo. Love the descriptive words,
wonderfully, wondrously right and
hootingly, howlingly good.
This one just does bring a smile to the face of the reader.

You're so right the magic of a giggle that releases into laughter is wonderful. As they say laughter is the best medicine, and a child's laughter is gloriously infectious as it is so innocent and beautiful. Well done, Brooke.

Oh, yes, most definitely, giggles are things that should always be let out; as important to be released as other things are to be held in. Those glorious little grinning faces keep us guessing what will come next. Thanks for another enjoyable poem. :-)

Perfect poetic proposition for this portrait of Sawyer in full bellied guffaw. Love the cadence and double alliterates words. As always a good message.

Hi Brooke,

Giggles are definitely better out than in, suppressing them can result in hiccoughs, and we don't want that!

Lovely fun poem, nice word pictures to go with the photo.

What little poem, the rhymes were cute and tender and really make you long for the simplicities of childhood. Sawyer looks like he's having a blast, which makes for the perfect additon to this poem. Good stuff there, Brooke.

This is a nice poem and to some extent I must agree but I have a neighbor who is a full grown man and giggles like a little girl. Definitely not sweet but irritating.
A little girl's giggle is grand, that same type of giggle in a man? Ahhhhh!
Oh, I'm giggling as I write this. But it is the giggle of a man not a little girl.

When I was a kid I found too many adults that told me not to giggle. What's a kid supposed to do. I say we should let them be kids and be joyful. I really enjoyed this well written verse, it was a joy to have read... John

    John, how sad adults wanted a child to be serious. Adults have far too many times when serious is called for. Kids should be giggling all the damned time :-) Thanks for your review :-) Brooke
