Giggles
By Adrian Grimes & Acquilla Faye McCoy
Spontaneous combustion of laughter
Explodes from the internal of the soul
Quintessential to your humane character
Manifesting in the physical
Most tend to ignore the feeling of pure enjoyment
and hold back
For those around to participate
In unanticipated joy revealed
Until the giggle moves through the atmosphere
With a mist that is inviting and enticing
Similar to that child who all of a sudden is able to
play outside
To all senses
With the big kids
Resulting in every adult and child
You know, those kids that seem to have all the
fun
Relaxing and enjoying
They always laugh
There is always a high five
Always a hug or two or four
Shared without restriction
To anyone who comes into their sight
Infectious affection expressed by children
The simplicity of a giggle
So take your time
Take your time to ignore your fear
Take that allotted time to recognize the laughter
The light-hearted conversations
That lead to heart filled smiles
Transforms adults to innocence in expression
Those intimate moments where words say nothing
To joke, share, and bond in laughter
But silence speaks everything
It feels as if your insides are tickled with a feather
A glance can cause a smirk signaling inside joke
You can try your hardest not to allow yourself to
be exposed to such innocence
And a smile can create a new relationship
But in a sense… it’s the essence
