Laughter

There is sound of laughter in the air and the people have something profound to share, they are moving about in the street, and they are sharing something that is extremely deep. What is going on over there, the groups are gathering around, and some people are rolling on the ground, they cannot Controle themselves, something must have broken loose in their head, and the ferocious wind is blowing underneath the bed. What is going on over there, the multitude is drawing near, a strange phenomenon has taken over the street and people are laughing to a specific rhythm and moving to a tumultuous beat. What could have started these laughing fits, you must be careful, or you will fall right over the ditch. Laughter is spreading everywhere, and some people began to fear. Laughter is good for your soul, and it is the safeties thing to do when you grow old, and when your eyesight grows dim laughter will purge you from that blatant sin; look at the clouds rolling above you, there is something evaporating in the sky, and you have to find the miracle before you die. There is laughter moving in the breeze, there is laughter running up your sleeve, the people burying the dead are laughing at the casket as it lowers into the ground, I have never seen anything like this before laughter is spreading all over the floor, the weak is laughing, the vulnerable is laughing, and the wounded man on top of the bed is laughing at the dead. When you are in pain laugh, when you feel ashamed laugh, laughter is the medicine for your soul, and it surely makes your spirit feel bold. What strange noise is coming from the room? Someone will deliver a baby soon, the mother to be is laughing as the pain hits her in the knee, the father to be is laughing too and they held each other close as the dream is about to come through. Laugh if you are young, laugh if you are old and when there is no tears in your eyes just laugh and look straight up into the sky; laughter will break the seal and laughter will complete that troublesome deal, laugh when you wed, laugh when you bury the dead, laugh when you are attack, laugh when you buy a new frock, laugh till you break down and cry laugh with a message that resonate in the sky, and when you have no word to say just laugh and brighten up the entire day. When you are in a deep sleep, laugh. Laugh when your trouble is complete, laugh and expose the body doubles, and when the cares of life overwhelm you just laugh.
