From the void that there shall be
Listen instead to a playgrounds sound
The laughter shouts and fun
This will surely warm your heart
Just as warming as a noon day sun
Remembering the sounds of youth
Whispering they seem to say
But first a smile invades your heart
As they beg to come and play
So your mind goes out to play
And leaves you sitting there
Remembering the love and fun
These times indeed are truly rare
So silence is'nt golden
This fact I'm certain of
If your world is void of laughter
You can not feel all the love.
