First Line: From the heart

Subject(s): Happiness; Laughter; Love; Joy; Delight


From the heart
Of a great city
Into my heart
You came
Bringing me laughter,
Tinkling, carefree laughter,
Laughter reminiscent
Of the rippling brook as it kisses
The moss-covered rocks that lie
Sleeping in its bed;
Of the swaying pines as they are kissed
By the gentle summer breeze ...
Not the coarse, meaningless laughter
Of the city
From whose heart
You came.
