Giggle

Okay everyone, on the count of three... giggle!
Did you do it?
If you did, I bet you feel better, right?
Laughter does wonders for the soul
It's like sunshine after a rain
Remember a smile is a frown upside down
Bet THAT made you giggle!
If you're looking to complain about something
I'm not interested!
Only happy stuff resides here
Even the word 'giggle' makes you giggle
And when you giggle, you jiggle
I'm on a crusade
Instead of 'down' say 'up'
Instead of 'sad' be 'glad'
Instead of 'no' say 'yes'
You won't believe how it changes your world
In closing, and I'm sorry I must
Even though I'm having a wonderful time
If you only remember one thing from all of this
Happy people live longer
More time to annoy all the cranky people
So stand in front of a mirror and giggle
The more you giggle, the more you jiggle
The more you jiggle, the more you giggle
So giggle my friends, GIGGLE!!!
(Bet you're smiling!)

Remember that brand of gelatin from the sixties called "Mr. Wiggle"? I wonder what happened to that? Your writing reminded me of Mr. Wiggle.
