Best Laughter Poems


Laughter
Her limericks posted on Soup
are full of the merits of poop,
of farts and of pee,
of laxatives' glee,
and hard ons - or those with a droop!

For my hilarious friend Jan Allison...

She sings in soft tones,
her magic exists beyond the obvious.
Listen closely to her wanting,
She is wrapped in a trancendent light.

A dreamer,
chasing white rabbits.
Grasping for the infinite,
with delicate hands.

A moth, 
Dances within her luminosity.
Flying on yesterday's wings,
carrying smiles that are meant for tommorow.
Witness her as she...

Premium Member Finding Laughter In Lockdown
I can’t see my dentist and I’ve got dire halitosis,
with distancing I hope that nobody will notice!

When we're outdoors we must keep 2 meters apart,
this suits me fine when I drop a huge smelly fart!
 
At the supermarket there’s an enormous queue,
I hope the queue's much...

The sea was all he knew before they met
While she was raised on scented, satin sheets
He slept on deck and learned to hoist the net
But it was she whose spell could tame the fleets

For she had beauty, yes, and she had brains
And still it was...

OLD MA.

Old Ma always gave the kids a nice treat
Always nuts and never anything sweet
But they soon found out why
Nuts were in great supply
Choc nut bars she'd only suck cos no teeth...

NO HIDING PLACE.

An old gangster robbed a bank and he ran
Flew out from Canada...

Premium Member Where Laughter Lived
Do not come looking for me in
     small corners of our house
I am not there

The vast space we occupied
     where laughter lived
I left behind

The still place in our bed
     once radiating love
I sense...

Premium Member Laughter, the Best Medicine
We live in a world where sickness abounds,
Sometimes stumping the best of providers. 
Symptoms and tests almost always expound, 
While the emotional costs grow wider. 

The travel and care and expenses we bare,
In dollars and tears for a healing.
Pale when compared, with the voluminous prayers,
Our...

The Queen of Laughter

Delight and laughter are your stock and trade,
With rhyme you carry our worries away,
You’re much more fun than a penny arcade.
Words sparkle like an egg by Faberge,
Dancing across poems like a cabaret.

A footle on poop, you’re back in the loop,
With words tastier than alphabet soup.
The...

Laughter Is the Best Medicine - Limerick Contest
(Un)Happy Hour

Bob went to the doc with pain in his rear
Walked with a limp and was "loaded" with fear
doc hemmed and he hawed 
amazed what he saw
Stashed deep in Bob's butt were two pints of beer...

SNAIL

I love my cool wheelchair to bits.
But when I get married it fits
to walk down the aisle,
it may take a while...
by then they're all snoring, the gits!

Come to me my child
Rest your head in my lap
My hand strokes your wild curls
Feeling the dampness on your neck
Lamplight caresses your flushed cheeks
Shadows waltzing on the walls

You gaze at me with pools of wisdom
Infinite eyes that have lived lifetimes
Speaking silent words 
You gift me...

Open up this moment
As you whisper a silent prayer
Bring laughter, light and love
To the surface, where you can
Brighten thoughts 
With kindness, joy and inspiration
That thrive on the gift of
Imagination, appreciation
Faith in the heart

Open up this day
As you sing from your soul
Happiness and hope and healing

Premium Member The Pathway To Heaven
Life is merely a stepping stone on the path toward heaven – Quote by Author


Teardrops
He colors like rain
As they fall
Softening the flames
Of sorrows
Who echo the pain

Stars
He numbers
Naming them all
As we slumber
Revealing a heart
Full of emotion
And wonder

Seasons
Each one in place
Revelations
Of earth’s embrace
Soaring over land
And through space

Laughter
