The Best Medicine

Laughter on the train.

By DAVID PRIORPublished 7 years ago 1 min read

Fun, free and easy to use,

Will help you far more than wine or booze,

Boosts your energy, and can reduce your pain,

Increases your happiness, and will keep you sane.

Relaxes your muscles, and protects your heart,

Binds people together, and easy to start,

Can enhance relationships, and improves your mood,

Try not to do it though, when you are eating food.

Promotes group bonding, adds joy to your life,

Helps you cope, with anxiety, stress, and strife,

Strengthens your immune system, and starts with a smile,

Eases your fears, and doubts for a while.

Laughter is the best medicine, they say,

Try it more often, and it will improve your day.

About the Creator

DAVID PRIOR

I write poetry, when the mood takes me. It may be something topical or on occasions I have a request. I take one day at a time, never take anything for granted, and believe that love and laughter make the world a better place.
