The sound of laughter,
Can cleanse any wound,
Maybe not forever,
But for a little while.

Causing one to smile,
Will bring a smile to you,
Whether you like it or not,
It will.

Laughing brings joy and peace,
To anyone and everyone,
Take any opportunity to laugh,
You will feel so much better.

Laugh at your own silly mistakes,
You would be surprised at how quickly they melt,
With one bout of laughter,
Everything seems to disappear.

So take a chance,
Go out in the world and laugh,
At yourself,
At any minor thing,
Just make sure,
To not laugh at anyone,
Laugh with them.

“A day without laughter, is a day wasted.”

Krista - This is a lovely poem with a great point.  If you really want to laugh, read poems written by Balladeer and Toerag.  You'll laugh at the nerve these two scalawags must have to post their poorly witten poems alongside my beautiful compositions *snorkl snorkl*.

That's my motto, and what a difference it makes!

Thanks for this timely reminder,
as I often forget to practice
what I preach half the time.     

Good thoughts, Kristabell~
