Laugh a little, love a lot

Sounds so simple, how come it's not

This world may seem a fickle mess

But there is kindness, I must confess

Unto others, do no harm

Make not a fist, but open arm s

Take not to heart, bad words said to you

Remember,

Mean words bounce off me and stick to you

Let others curse all they wish

Swim away just like a fish

If people try to bring you down

Never let them see you frown

There is good inside everyone

Bursting out to have some fun

Do not pout, stomp, cry, or yell

Call others names or say they smell

Instead, just turn the other cheek

And share the secret that they seek

I promise it is quite enchanting

You can’t be angry when you’re laughing

I chose to write this as a childrens poem, who enjoys laughter better?

A shout out to Cathy Holmes who spotted the last line in a story of mine. Saying it is tattoo worthy.
