“The king looked out, saw Isaac laugh,
’Twas laughing with his wife.”
It would appear there’s more afoot,
With innuendo, rife.
See, ‘Isaac’ translates best to ‘laughter’;
I found that on my shelf.
So when it’s said that laughter laughs,
That’s Isaac being self.
And when he is himself with her,
That’s code for amorous.
The king knew then she was no sis;
That’s why he raised a fuss!
So Isaac got caught in a lie;
The king was pretty mad.
But can we find real fault with him?
He got it from his dad.
(from Genesis 26:8-9)

FREE CHOICE OF LAUGHER AND SMILE
Laugh & Smile.
It doesn't cost a thing;
Not because money comes in,
Or because you're feigning.
Laugh & Smile.
It's not bought even...
If it's freely given,
It's willingly released when driven.
Laugh & Smile.
It doesn't cost a thing,
but your choice to sing
and to be joyful or happy
even when all things becomes scrappy.
Laugh & Smile.
Choose to be grateful
not bcos of affluence or your jar is full.
Choose to laugh, Smile again,
That is what we all must sustain.

Tangerine sunsets prove to my heart
That endings, too, have their part
Fireflies flickering across the dark
Light up the way so that we remark
Emerald pines, strong oak and birch
Color the forest in hues to research
Butterflies wishing upon a red rose
Silence my longings with beautiful prose
Lavender lilacs fill souls with delight
Capturing hopes in breaths of insight
Robins and doves soar across the dawn
Awakening laughter to which we are drawn
Buttery sunshine lights up my dreams
Opening the heart to joy in extremes
Bunny and fawn both blaze their trails
Dancing gracefully, wagging happy tails
Rainbows of wonders sing through my soul
Wrapping me in love that makes me whole
Embracing my spirit in light from the throne
Where there is comfort in knowing I am never alone

The bright color of
Pumpkin-orange leaves
Bending, gracefully
To this bitter wind and
Laughing boldly,
Once, again
