with tear stained cheeks,

clouded eyes,

and a flushed face,

a smile still grew.

stretching across cheeks,

crinkling the eyes,

a smile still spread.

breathless from sobbing,

still hiccuping a giggle.

with an aching heart

and a queasy feeling ,

head still being thrown back

to laugh a magical song.

loud enough for others

in pain to hear.

a laugh strong enough

to make them join.
