Ants In Your Pants

Ever wonder why we giggle How exactly does it start What makes it uncontrollable Perhaps it's a silly fart You see a goofy stranger Like a dude from outer space Before you can say Frank N. Stein You're falling on your face Giggles are quite intangible You can't buy them at the store Worth buckets full of greenbacks Some gold and so much more You're in a state of euphoria Trying to stay calm but can't It's a tonic for whatever ails you When ants get in your pants © Jack Ellison 2012

Giggles are worth much more than money can buy. Best medicine as they rightfully say. Always, Laura

I don't worry so much about them getting into my pants, just about them getting out again... Funny poem, Jack, as usual... Terry (I suppose you do mean ants and not... ummm... aunts...)
