As laughter bubbled in my throat, <br />a smile began to form. <br />My chuckle was an anecdote, <br />and eased the inner storm. <br /> <br />My mind became a music hall, <br />filled with a happy sound. <br />Which calmed the dark impending squall, <br />and turned my thoughts around. <br /> <br />If love can make the world go round, <br />blitheness can do likewise. <br />When a good remedy is found, <br />let it revitalize. <br /> <br />Just laugh and see how good you feel, <br />humour is really great. <br />Your soul will open up and heal, <br />and all your fears abate. <br /> <br />Brightening up a wounded heart, <br />letting joy filter in, <br />is something of a brand new start. <br />Hey, feel a smile begin. <br /> <br /> <br />© Ernestine Northover<br /><br />Ernestine Northover<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/feel-a-smile-begin/
