Today’s poem is all about happiness and joy.

by Dr. Anthony Murphy writer

Today’s poem is all about happiness and joy.

I want us all to laugh and enjoy life we did as a girl or boy.

Statistics show children laugh over 100 times a day.

When we get older it seems that our laughter gene goes away.

 

Now we have responsibilities that keeps us stressed and uptight,

Well here’s my prescription to you. Find something to laugh about tonight.

A merry heart is like good medicine, so find a reason to laugh today.

When you’re having a good old fashioned belly laugh stress melts away.

 

A good old fashioned belly laugh you say, for me it’s been years.

I can remember laughing so hard it brought me to tears.

But that doesn’t seem to happen in these tumultuous times here and now.

No, now we will have to retrain ourselves to laugh and here’s how.

 

Find something funny on TV or read a humorous book each day.

You will discover that when your full of joy, pain and headaches won’t stay.

Yes the Bible tells us that God wants us happy and enjoying our life.

So today, rightnow start to enjoy life as a single person or a husband or wife.
