A Minichu On Laughter

Don’t stifle laughter.
Many great things such as happiness or relief
come after.

Enjoy a gaffe!
It can even lessen your grief
to laugh.

Guffaw
for some relief.
HA.

Don’t stifle laughter.
It can lessen your grief.
HA!

That is some wisdom from the Bible right there. Proverbs 15:13 NKJV. A merry heart makes a cheerful [a]countenance, But by sorrow of the heart the spirit is broken.

That's saying it short and sweet...we sometimes need it on our to do list! It's funny how 'ugh' got in the middle of laughter.

I agree we shouldn't stifle laughter; it provides many benefits. An interesting form for a rhyme poem, Andrea. I liked the message though. Write On! my friend. Bill
