A most happy poem in fine triolet form - laughter is great and put to poetic form, it is even greater - you are formidable competition!! Brooke

    Isn't the triolet fun? I haven't done one for awhile and after reading yours, I just had to do another. I think it's form worked snappy for this subject matter. But, it is very versatile. Even works on dramatic pieces so well. Thanks so much for your great compliments and review. Warmest regards, Sue

This is a great little poem that you could say all day long. It's cute and it's creative. There really is nothing like laughing all day if you can accomplish it. The only time I did that is when my ex-husband sat in a beach chair and it rolled over and his feet were sticking up in the air. I'm laughing now at it. I like your poem. You sure know a lot about poetry. Good luck in the contast.

    As soon as I read your story, I CRACKED UP!!! And am now laughing as I write this!! LOL!! Speaking of ex-husband's and laughing...just reminded me. I still crack up when I remember the whole family went bowling and Ross swung toward the lane, his thumb wouldn't come out of the hole and he went flying into the gutter!! LMAO!!!!! We laughed for a week over that one. Oh, my. Thanks for the laughs on this review!! :-))) Sue

Wonderful poem. You're right - laughter is contagious, even when people don't know what you're laughing at! Great structure, flow, and rhythm. Thanks for sharing, and good luck!

A very nice expression of feelings of joy and laughter and the effect such emotion has on those around. I liked the wording and the rhyme of your poem.

I am not usually a fan of poetry but I thoroughly enjoyed this one. I thought it flowed very nicely and didn't come across as forced. I also found the simplicity charming.

That's so true, though. You don't often hear one person laughing all by themselves. Usually it's a crowd. Unless I am reading cards at Hallmark. Good read. joan marie

    Sometimes, I'm alone and think of something and just crack up!! LOL!! It feels great to laugh. Yeah, the Hallmark's will do it, too! Thanks for your great review. Always, Sue

I love this poem. I agree, there's nothing like a good old belly laugh. It really does make us feel good. Your rhyme are great and I do like this form. Very interesting. Great job. We must have some sort of mental connection because I've just written a rictameter with laughter as the first and last words!

Warm regards.

Roisin

    Get Out!! Is that your entry for the "Feelings" contest? Can't wait to read it. Loved it that you posted Eoin's poem. Off to a great start! Thanks for your review. :-)) Sue

    No, it's not for a contest. I started two for your contest, one was Laughter and the other Wrinkles. Never got to finish the laughter one so I just got back to it. Might post it later.
