Laughter
Laughter is good medicine; it could extent a life.
Laughter reduces conflict,
hypertension and strife.
Gaiety manifests fun flowing through human veins.
Gaiety can aptly state
what hilarity attains.
Delight is a blissful state from gratification.
Delight comes from contentment:
extreme satisfaction.
Joyfulness is the pleasure evoked by well being.
Joyfulness is an expression
of a good time feeling.
Felicity is gladness: internal, quiet mirth.
Felicity bubbles forth
giving smiles a new birth.
A merry heart will produce a cheerful countenance.
A merry heart is a feast:
continual sustenance.
