    A Parent's Joy

    The parent's greatest source of joy
    may be the laughter of a child.
    The giggley coo's of an infant
    learning to play peek-a-boo;
    The cackley silliness of
    a young child tickled and tossed;
    The gurgley guffaws of
    a young teen getting and playing jokes;
    The open-mouthed joyful smiles
    of young people at play with their siblings;
    And the parent's greatest source of joy
    may be laughter born from a child.

    If I feel physically as if the top of my head were taken off, I know that is poetry.
