HANGING on humor!


HANGING on humor!
by Debi Lyn

 

When Life is weighing you down and testing your last nerve;

when overwhelm taunts your mind and body but you can't swerve.

 

When tears threaten to fill and spill and stream down your cheeks to your chin...

HANGING on humor will distract you and slow down the awful spin.

 

HANGING on humor will make you laugh and forget about the strain

of all that tries to take you down and douse your parade with rain.

 

So watch some comedy, listen and laugh out loud

until you get through the darkness and past the biggest clouds.
