Hunny Funnies
The places of laughter I luxuriate in...
I love me when I am laughing.
Unhinged from every worrisome thought.
Uncontrolled giggles
seeping in spaces
soaking soul
as body follows without question.
Corporeal flesh as ha-ha exponent
fused to unknown source of comedic gold
that recycles
shimmers riotous full on its own endlessness.

I love you when you are laughing.
Caught by unexpected cackles
that make orange juice snort out your nose
dragon-like fiery funny spray
as silent tremors overtake you
decorum dead
head down
hands barely on table
gasping at air
hilarity doesn’t require to continue.
A classic case of toddler sniggers contagion
infectious and impossible to ignore.
Expands galaxy-like.
Billions of other objects to collide with
yet mysteriously misses.
The glory show on your face
reflects channeled light
from those who got the joke
before you and after you
in perpetual stitches.

I love us when we are laughing.
A circle of raucous shrieks.
Eyes water from joyous exertion
and gut-busting diaphragmatic glee.
Internal pressures force a cacophony of chortles
that mimic howling coyotes with power to reach the moon
or at least our neighbors
have everyone else pine for pleasures,
check us out
still doubled over
in uninterrupted ebullience snickers
and about to pee our pants
rolling on the floor
with whoops and hollers splitting our sides
and
being so nonplussed about it.
Want to spend the rest of my life this way
as a gift of the best medicine
over toughest times
not one thing artificial.
Just life high on easy laughter
that looks exactly
like the familiar fuzzy love
it truly is.

Beautiful poetry. As a past mental health nurse, I have to applaud you for your encouraging piece for laughter.
So very true, laughter is definitely not artificial . Laughter is comforting to all 🙂Nice
My beautiful lady, this right here is a winner! I couldn't stop smiling while reading this because it was so relatable. I cherish all the laughing memories as they are my favourites. I love laughing till my cheek hurts, my stomach about to burst and when I try to stop, I look at the other person and the laughter starts all over again. Lol! I truly miss laughing like this. Your poem helped me reminisce. Laughing is the best feeling there is. I loved this poem so much!
