The Sixth Sense - Humor

You should  learn to laugh at thingsThat do not go your way
And smile at the smaller things
That happen everyday.
And smooth over an error
With one well worded phrase
Then become a prickly cactus
And push everyone away.
When something shocking does occure
You can protect the blow
Just turn the gaze of wide eyes stares
So to youself they’d go.
Don’t you like to see the smile
That appears on someone face?
The wide toothed grin they grant you with
Will always make my day.
You don’t need to be close to someone
To share a laugh together
In fact that chuckle someone made
Will brighten any weather.
And make someone look seen at least
By sharing funny faces
That inside joke you come up with
Will help you see bright faces.
The cross eyed thing you do with her
The word that makes him laugh
The jesture that makes someone chuckle
The killer phrase in math.
This is a choice you get to make
Don’t throw it away
Humor is a simple thing
That brightens someone’s day

  • A Space Among The Stars

    To live in a space among the stars
    I'd have to get binoculars
    To see the dentist on the moon
    And find the next Uber at noon.
    To live in a space among the stars
    I'd have to float to school in cars.
  • Frost

    Its fingers were hot
    and cold and
    sweet and dark.
    All at the same time.

    Sleeeeep. 

    It whispered in her ear.
    Her petals shivered.
    Its breath ran slowly
    down
    her stem and
    tickled a leaf.
