Laughter Is the Best Medicine

Start We often come across a certain day When we cannot find a single way To replace despondency with hope Discard the thought of taking dope We remember God and seek his blessing Offer prayers and keep guessing Will He help, or will He not? There’s no way of reading His thought We seek the guidance of a holy man Request him to suggest a remedy if he can He listens carefully to all our woes Prepares a long list of rituals he knows We perform the rituals as he says Thinking it’ll end our bad days But, things continue as they were All the efforts fail to succor One fine day a comedian finds us Enthralls us without much fuss Eliciting laughter loud and clear Removes depression and brings cheer There is no better medicine in life To reduce tension and end strife Than sharing hearty laughter And enjoying bliss thereafter
