Just being silly

Just being silly

A Poem by Constance Payne
"

So often in life we forget that being a little silly can make your life easier to deal with. Whatever comes you can take it if you can laugh at it. Laugh and smile and live and love and see that which

"
If we smile at our troubles
and laugh at our fears
the world will smile
and dry our tears

If we hold all our troubles
so close to our heart
the world will hide
and leave us apart

Living and loving and 
laughing some more
can bring your heart
in the Joy store

Life has it's storms
and events will play out
it is our simple choice
to laugh or to shout

I prefer laughter
silliness in tow
this is the one thing
I for sure know

Despite the troubles
I face in my day
a smile gives me wings
that is all I can say.

Thank You Claire....Silliness is about the only way to get through a day any more.
Not silly at all! Silliness is serious therapy! Enjoyed this poem, and it's joy-inspiring message! Reminds me of this quote: "A person without a sense of humor is like a wagon without springs, jolted by every pebble in the road." - Henry Ward Beecher. Great write!

Thank You for reading. Those who are jolted by each bump end up sore.
Beautiful sentiments you express. Very nice.

Thank You for reading.
This is a great poem, and it definitely helps people to see that a little bit of silliness isn't too bad for what we deal with throughout our lives. Just a little now and then is never a bad thing, and you penned this to perfection, ma'am. :)

Great job. :)
