LAUGHTER LINES Looking in the mirror, shaving as you do A faint red line of blood appeared Just a drop or two I'd knicked a little laughter line Just beneath my eye Don't you dare say wrinkle Unless you want to die I wondered 'bout the laughter line Cos sometimes I have cried Reflection in the mirror Is this the one I feared? But I will keep on laughing What else can you do And I will keep on smiling Making wrinkles, just for you |

Cute. Humorous and very readable. Since I went the electric razor many years back, I don't get that laugh nick anymore. ~*~ If they give you lined paper, write sideways. ~*~ |

Too bad those lines always seem to look better on the guys than the gals. I really enjoyed this. Lori |

I like this very much... you've dressed reality in a robe of whimsy... and if your lady didn't place a kiss on that laugh line made just for her, she should have! |
