Giggle never ages

In her wrinkled face.
Struggles of years reside.
Giggles never age.

In face of struggles.
Her spirit remained robust.
Giggles, they remained.

Never losing face.
Pride displayed in glint of eyes.
Giggles, they endear.

The face of the brave
Smiling away life's struggles.
Unsheathe your giggles.

Born in the year 1968, my childhood was spent amidst the beautiful scenic landscape of a small town in India, Ranchi. Though an engineer by qualification, reading, writing and cooking are my passions. Another thing that I am passionate about is my country, India. As they say, a lifetime is probably not enough to explore the whole of India. Currently based in Kolkata, I can be reached at gdutta17@gmail.com. View all posts by gdutta17

  Thank you so much. Isn’t the picture beautiful? This was a prompt in a Haiku group and I got mesmerised by the pic. So decided to share. 😊

  Thanks to you as well, for providing a thought provoking prompt. The picture that I posted, came out of the blue, as if it was waiting for your prompt to be declared. 😊
