The Subtle Joke by Hanoochi

"The Subtle Joke"
by Hanoochi

Giddiness of the heart makes me smile big and wide,
Laughter, rings in my ears. From a distance I chuckle, what a funny site!
Shaking my head, in tears. Giggling within, then you smile at me so loud,
I burst out, uncontained.

I grab my sides, ohhh! and double over in pain.

I muster a long deep breath to compose myself,
letting it out so slow. You glance at me with a playful grin, just waiting,
I see the subtle joke. Exploding inside, the bomb shatters and shakes and rolls,
here we go again, ohh!! The laughter touches my soul.

Hope this made you smile or at least chuckle in amusement!
