What am I?

What am I?

A Poem by Allen Smuckler
"

Who doesn't need to laugh?

"

I’m a belly laugh, a deep laugh,

a chortle and a chuckle.

I love to howl while howling,

and snicker while I snort.

 

I’m more than just a smile,

a snigger or a tee hee.

It makes me roar with glee

or cackle while I crow.

 

I’m shrieking while exulting

and quacking like a mallard.

A touch of country heehaw

while laughing gleefully.

 

Ask Emma while I giggle,

or cluck just like a duck.

I gobble like a turkey

as if to shout good luck.

 

I’ve used up the Thesaurus

I’m grinning ear to ear.

Look further not, I’ve beat y’all.

Did you figure out guffaw?

 

:)))

Ohhhhhhhh, guffawing loudly here, followed by a giggle, slowly sliding into a contented smile! You've obviously taken remembered chit chat and used your 'metering skills' to weave a great and happy rhyme! Love the look and sound of this, read twice, positively slips off the tongue .. 'I’ve used up the Thesaurus ~ I’m grinning ear to ear. ~ Look further not, I’ve beat y’all. ~ Did you figure out guffaw?'

Tommy says he giggles, well, I'm let's say I'm a lightweight but, every so often, something comment or incident makes me come out with this awful, belly laugh. guess we could say 'dirty' laugh! - it's so embarrassing!

Hope the game went well.. head up, feet apart, hands placed correctly, address the ball, look up .. down, up .. look down, wiggle hips, arms go back, use your weight .. oops, you missed again!i

This is a nice light hearted piece Allen! I tend to giggle when all my inhibitions are crippled by laughter; my friends think it quit funny, this big man with is girly little giggle :0) At least I sneeze like a man…lol..

Great Write!

Tommy
