Do adults dare giggle when in a very high class restaurant? Or maybe giggle in front of all the serious looking people around us?
Yes, we dare everyone to let down their hair and be themselves.
Life is not about the seriousness we put in - it is about being ourselves and cheering everyone up when the world outside looks bleak and uninviting, smiles.
Yes, dare to be different - giggle, giggle, giggle even if you should not! Smiles.
Cheerio, Ritchie. :)) Hugs.

It always helps when the chips are down for you to just have a good laugh about whether you are upside down or right side up. Never allow your problem to control you.

Hanging upsidedown
while swinging on a swing set
Hard not to giggle

delightful picture you chose to go with your fun, giggling 5-7-5 - it tickles the funnybone
this brought back memories of being a kid - 'double-dog dare ya', and summer afternoons playing outside -
excellent entry
good luck in the contest ... ;o)

Your poem is in excellent 5/7/5 syllable count
good alliteration in go/giggle
and in dare/do
I like the humor of daring someone to laugh in spite of herself :-) Brooke

This is a nice humorous 5-7-5 poem for the contest. Has the correct syllable count for each line. Nice appropriate picture to accompany the poem.

My God, what a dare!

But I like it very much. There is a lot more in it that I wish I can bring out.
Strong, direct fearless.

This photo fits this piece well. Good alliteration in go/giggle...dare/do. Simple, sweet and filled with humor. Best of luck in the contest.

I confess, mystery writer--your creative, well-crafted poem made me smile!
A fun writing which nicely complements the colorful illustration.
