Notes About The Poem

Laughter

sometimes when I'm wiggling
I get carried away and lose my self-control
start giggling

it is my style
to bring laughter as I cajole
a smile

there's worth
found in a soul
mirth

sometimes when I'm wiggling
to bring laughter as I cajole
mirth

Jan Allison August 22, 2023 at 2:48 PM I'm struggling to write the form it is so challenging to get it to make sense, but i wont rush to finish it, you nailed it Lin:-) hugs Jan xx

Duke Beaufort August 22, 2023 at 1:05 PM Laughing is good--I agree. However, when I feel depressed, which does happen, I can't stand other people laughing. It's funny because just a few weeks ago I couldn't stop laughing at how silly and crazy a working life really is. Nice job in your poem. Lin Lane August 22, 2023 at 1:20 PM Thanks ever so kindly. Your visits to my poetry today were delightful.

Jim Slaughter August 22, 2023 at 11:06 AM In my case, "giggling" often leads to "wiggling", and I never need to be "cajoled" into laughing. BOL in the contest, Lin. Lin Lane August 22, 2023 at 1:19 PM Thanks Jim. Laughter really can change our lives. I appreciate your comments.

David Kavanagh August 22, 2023 at 8:52 AM Nice Minichu Lin, definitely not enough mirthful laughter around, but hey at least you’re trying to bring a smile to our faces, great entry, cheers David Lin Lane August 22, 2023 at 9:00 AM I'm trying, David. Minichu can be fun to write, but it's also challenging with its stipulations. Thanks for liking this one.

Jeff Connelly August 22, 2023 at 7:01 AM Lin. Laughter every day is better than eating an apple. Thank you... Lin Lane August 22, 2023 at 8:05 AM That's the way I see it, too, Jeff. Thank you for your thoughts.

Tom Cunningham August 22, 2023 at 4:43 AM Laughter is certainly the best medicine Lin, we need more of it with all the doom and gloom at the moment. Good luck in the contest. Tom Lin Lane August 22, 2023 at 4:46 AM Good morning and thanks, Tom. Laughter is needed in our lives more and more each day. I'm trying to get things posted before I sail away.
