Subject: [stylist] Another 40 word poem and note...

The other night I was sort of challenged to write a 40  word poem about 
'laughter'.  I can't remember who exactly issued the  challenge and I do 
apologize for that. I did try.. and to be honest I was almost  stumped at first.  
But here is what I came up with... very simply said  but quite introspective 
if I am being honest.
 
Laughter

I  tuck them away,
each giggle and almost
unheard chuckle, every  belly
jiggle and each Jello guffaw,
every snort and snicker,
and whoosh  of plucked tissues
to absorb merriment's tears...
because sometimes what I  need
most to remember is... laughter.
