Swelled Laughter.



If there were eyes in place of nose,
And nose in place of eyes,
Both are twins to look cool,

If the forehead is in place of the mouth,
The mouth had been in place of the forehead,
The stomach would have been swelled with laughter,

How much fun it would have been,
If there were hands in place of legs,
And legs in place of hands,
What difference would it make?
Both have five fingers,

There would have been stomach in place of chest,
And chest in place of stomach,
The stomach would fill Air first and then chest,

If this has happened the whole system would have gone haywire,
Tension would have mounted over tension,
Had to run away with hands instead of feet,

If the drum had to be tied on the stomach
Then even the support would have been helpless,
Therefore, it is better to be everything systematically,
This is what will happen if you are out of system................

About this poem
