Life In the Laugh Lane

Tell me something funny darlin' Tell a joke or two Make me hee and haw until My face is turning blue! Nothing I love more than laughing Spittin' out my teeth Rolling on the floor until My belly hurts-good grief! Got to have a sense of humor In this world today Laughter's the best medicine Funny's here to stay Make me the butt of your jokes Doesn't bother me Laugh at myself all the time And do it happily Let's face it-we do silly things At times hilarious To live with such a solemn face Makes life precarious So riddle me and let's have fun We'll giggle for awhile I'll feel it's a successful day If I can make you smile!

I think not a day goes by without me smiling or laughing-- Second write in a row that made me smile-- do enjoy poems like these that celebrate life through laughter! I definitely agree with you--- a day sure would be a success even with just a smile-I think it's one of the best ways to live life-- laughing and smiling even if there's a lot in life that can bring us down-- at the end of day, we have that to strengthen us in some way-- enjoyed this one very much, smiles ^_^ -- nikko :)
