Laughter crying _
Have you ever watched your child
within your space, create their laughter
from a belly breath of feeling
to touch you like no other.
It has a ring to it
that catches you,
within their merry moment.
The youngest of the two
does this to you
so here's to you my daughter.
She's full of life and feeling
that's how she is
it's just the way they made her.
Her laughter brings forth tears
all rolled in together.
In for tea from playtime
good times followed them in there
to give us all a belly laugh
as she took the part of her mother.
Tears in our eyes
love through our hearts
her sister can't hold it together.
Then the acting stopped
as tears poured out, for a
precious glimpse of spirit within her.
