Laughter

LAUGHTER

Laughter is like an infection,
Spreading joy wherever it goes.
Requires no painful injection,
Laughter is like an infection.

Laughter will not hurt your eyesight,
To look on the bright side of life.
You will find humour a delight,
Laughter is like an infection.

Laughter's good medicine indeed,
Endorphins released to the brain.
By planting some happiness seed,
Laughter is like an infection.

It helps to bring cheer to the soul,
A merry heart makes others glad
Laughter is so good for us all,
Laughter is like an infection.

And wouldn't it be nice if it would infect everyone...I think the world would be a much better place with laughter because it is so hard to hate when you are laughing. Really cool Vivien

Thank you Valentina. Nice for you to reply. How much better the world would be if we laughed more! A laugh a day keeps the devil at bay(just thought of that) Blessings, Vivien
