breath
given to something of joy
escapes
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
a sea of voice
above the din of the crowd
laughter escapes
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
riding the crest
over heads & gossipy words
laughter emanates
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
heads turn
in the direction, sour words lost
laughter embraced
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
heads tilt
smiles involuntarily form
memories churn
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
sound of power
filling spaces of empty words
laughter's embrace
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
one single impression

Oh, that last one really put the exclamation mark on the rest. Marvelous post.
Last one is my favorite. Nicely done.
Wonderful series for the laughter prompt. I loved them all!
PS Last one is also my favorite!
I liked them all, but the last one was my favorite, too. By the way, I'll bet you are a very pleasant person.
"Sour words lost" made my day. We need laughter so very much.

These are all great. I too enjoyed the last one!
Great job! Love the different laughters and the general happiness written in these pieces!
I loved them all and how in each one laughter escapes...and fills all the void spaces. Great job.
your "laughter" is contagious i see as it spread like wildfire on this page!!!! i love the fourth one.. although all of them are lovely....
I am glad to visit your place of beauty, and enjoy your poetry about laughter. :)
Thank you so much for stopping by my haiku to visit, too.
Qualcosa, lovely haiku! I love this site very much! :)
The first one is wonderful, IMHO. :-)
Lovely words for the prompt. Love that last one, like you worked your way up to it.
strum in Louis Armstrong, it's a wonderful world and Yoko and John's Nutopia after:
heads turn
in the direction, sour words lost
laughter embraced
beautiful.
As you're not forcing me to choose, I like them all very much.
I love the "breath escaped" because I think, now, that is what laughter is. The loss of control over the breath that we keep under control. It's a great concept. that's why I love OSI.
Good series, I could not chose one above the others.
these are beautiful.. never thought of laughter in so many ways...
Love this -- especially the link between laughter and breath.
What an amazing
series connecting laughter
with breathing itself!
Thanks for your recent visit and comment my OSI on 'Laughter' at Sacred Ruminations.
Hugs and blessings,
Excellent tribute to laughter! JP/deb
