Laughter
Laughter
Rippling through the air
Smiles morphing into gape-mouthed giggles
Tears shooting off pulsating cheekbones
Hands clutching quivering ribs
A shameless snort erupting
Laughter
A magically contagious human gift
Whether soft and polite
Or threatening to burst one’s core
A welcome affliction
And formidable defense
Sprinkling the high notes
Into life’s somber melody
A tune that renders one choiceless
But to dance
LUGGAGE Lady 
Yay! Loved this all the way through…and then the ending? “A tune that renders one choiceness/But to dance” : priceless. Thank you.
