Laughing

There is one common mechanism
that connects us all together.
An emotion that balances us
and cures all in bad weather. 

As contagious as a cold
it can range from small or deep.
Releasing stress and lifting you
to happy instead of weep.

A language we all speak
and understand so well.
If you haven't laughed for some time
it will engage you to propel.
