The Laughter on the Playground

The Laughter on the Playground
11/11/2019

the rustling of the leaves,
bustling across the courtyard,
to an imaginary finish line,
only to be disrupted, by
an invisible prankster,
swirling them into a loop

sitting on the patio, cupping,
ohh! that warm cup-a-tea
shawl draped shoulders,
teased by the autumn breeze

weathervane spinning,
rooster at the helm,
croaking n creaking,
straining to twist,
with jester at its tail

childhood, prodded by simplicity,
watching oak let a few more loose,
floating to join ones on the ground,
and, if you hear carefully
the rustling sounds so much,
like laughter on the playground

    That laughter in the playground is so innocent and so uplifting.
