Debbie Guzzi Poet Acrostic

No License Needed

L iterally everyone has a funny bone somewhere,
I nside their head, their heart, or in their ear?
V eracious platitudes of silliness stray,
E ven in the minds of babies at their play.

L aughter like lollipops provide a sucker’s sweet
A tantalizing memory of bellies and bare feet.
U nless you have a bowl of sour lemons to dispense
G oodness knows you’ll laugh at those faces of pretense.
H and and heart and head can join in life’s display

L ively laughter lingers at end of love filled day.
O ver and over life will presents 
V arious opportunities for laughter without recompense
E njoy, employ, for a life full of joy…. needs no license.
