TIME FLIES

dVerse Monday challenge, a quadrille of
exactly 44 words using the word GIGGLE
Submitted February, 2017
*************




Moustachioed and muscled
Quite manly, I find.
Confident, efficient
Humble and kind

Gray at the temples
How can that be
Where has time gone
Too fast for me

Echoes of giggles
Sweet baby smile
Could I get that time back
Just for a while?

    You can always get the giggles back, but the rest seems to me to have fallen in subjection to the law of gravity, lol. Giggles are better anyway, thanks

    I hope at least he can giggle a bit... but I guess I don't any longer.

    Lovely words and memories.
    Where does time go indeed? How can my sons now be men - one greying at the temples too.
    Pleased to report my grandchildren are still young enough to giggle - long may it last!
    Kind regards
    Anna :o]
