Laughter

The medicinal value 

      of a belly laugh 

Is undisputed 

     by purpose or gaffe, 


They say. 


Why do we shake 

     with rhythmic contractions, 

Loosening air, 

     mitigating distractions, 

Vibrating the body 

     with vivacious reactions.


Intermittent doling 

Merriment rolling 


Laughter takes us to 

     migratory places

Warmer climes,

     happier faces.
