she walked along a careful breeze
trying not to upset those she
thought she needed
laughter distanced itself
from her
worth noting the invisibility
fought against a fierce wind
which made her curls
slap her nose, then
silliness of it all encouraged
her tiny nose twitch and dimples to take flight
the giggles were quite a shock

Wonderful poem, Audrey, and I like the contrast between “quite a shock” and “giggles.” An enticing twist. 💕

What ever else could be done in the moment of surprise. One must be able to laugh at most situations or we’d fail to live with positivity. Thanks so much.

So happy the laughter and giggles are returning! We can only nurse sadness for so long, then those around us need to see our smiles. Hugs, Poetess.

Laughter and giggles are present, however, my poetry doesn’t always allow it as I am prone to feeling the emotions of those around me. Makes it complicated. Yet, I’m happy to share. ♡
