Infectious There…now, It’s come to you, you, Once so mature, But oh, that brew Now, you have it… For that horrible Line of sight Was seeking some Great new highlights… It traveled by day, It traveled by night…now… There, You have it… Sound in waves Shock waves to save… There, now… It’s yours, and You have it… Low the sound was, Then lifting high…oh, Spare the napkin, Let teeth beam It’s not as bad as you Would dream… There, you have it… Floating auspicious, But oh, how nutritious… There, you have it… From deep within, that quell would begin, From ticklishly deep In some early wherein; You’ve tried to hide, It would not abide The rules of your road, No, it’s here to goad… You try not to shed, But, HEAVENS! You dread… This horrible, abominable, Superfluous infection… Oh, gracious, here it comes, You lower your head, To try, in soft hum, To stave away That which would shore This utter contempt At people who roar… In Simple, Soundful, Soulful Laughter.  |

Karilea "Oh, gracious, here it comes, You lower your head, To try, in soft hum, To stave away That which would shore This utter contempt At people who roar… In Simple, Soundful, Soulful Laughter." Gosh, do they bottle that...I need a whole case! Thanks for this wonderful poem!  |

One of my favorite memories of my mother is the time I made her just about lose her teeth with a puppet bear and the teasing of my niece. Her laughter must have gone on for 20 minutes as we played. Thanks for bringing back such a sweet memory.  SusanHappiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you. Joy is a state of mind. |

Yes! One of the most precious sounds in the world to me is a child's laughter, one of the most alluring traits to me is a man who has a deep, full-bodied laugh, and my most prized gifts are the friends and loved ones I can laugh hardily with. An affection and infection worth spreading. Can you tell I love this yet? Love, Reg |

I thought that was so cute. I love laughter. Making someone laugh is a really good feeling. You know that you've brightened their day. I really loved how you portrayed it here. A wonderful topic! *Allison* ~~~***~~~Come away with me, Wendy. Come away to Neverland~~~***~~~ |

Karilea........infectious, yes! This is a secret...when my daughter gets to laughing, she sounds like "Chrissy" from the old "Three's Company" TV show.....she gets me going so hard I cry. Wonderful write! Hope all's going well....as you can see, I'm up late (this is a busy week). |

I say... Let it rip! I heard it said that nothing makes God happier than His children at play. And to me, nothing says "play" better than laughter. Love this, Karilea! Patricia |
