So, what's so funny?

A grin turns into a smile, to a titter, to a giggle, a chuckle into a guffaw of gut wrenching hilarious hilarity.

Do you smile at a child's laughter?

If so read on...

That is:

A wonderfully infectious expression
of positive raw emotion that holds
the power to heal & possess another heart.

Imagine now the many multiples of this power...

An airborne medicine
acting like a virus,
creating a balm over a world
where there is...
too much sadness.

Seriously,

you're having a laugh,

...aren't you?

    Hi Michael,

    I loved the video, so nice to see all those babies laughing so loud!
    Yes, laughter heals. My hero dr. Michael Greger made a video about it:

    A message worth spreading, well done

    What a charming write Michael - makes you wonder, doesn't it?
    As for Chitty Chitty Bang Bang - a true masterpiece that I have enjoyed as a child and with my children over and over again.
    All the best

    I so laughed when I read this poem Michael, and the comment that you had written yourself.
    'Sorry, I have a virus. Put the phone down and then explode with laughter.'

    That comment 'killed me' sending me into fits of uncontrollable laughter.
    I think that I will have to get another job now, just so that I can call in sick and say that line!
    I'm laughing now just running your comment back through my head again!'
    This poem is so well written and funny.
    I guess you have the last laugh! (pun!)

      Thanks Peter. It is amazing how much we relate to observational inspired pieces. It's more an daydream wish rather than a poem.

      Thanks again.
