It’s funny

… what makes us laugh!

It’s funny what makes us laugh and giggle;

what triggers our guffaw!

It’s the awkward-oddity, the wiggle,

that we snigglers most adore!

.

It’s funny when the joke is played

on anyone but you!

It’s the chaos of a clowns’ parade

that thrills us through and through!

.

It’s funny how the cards collapse

with a breath of expectation!

It’s the maybe so, the just perhaps,

the gasp - in a moment’s hesitation!

.

What makes us laugh is the funny blunder

that trips us up and leaves us all asunder!

About the Creator

Tim Grace

A first impression has a lasting effect - it makes a notable difference. In a subtle way that’s who I am as a poet. A ‘first impression’ looking for the gentle ‘twist’ that draws attention to a novel observation.
