Tummy Aches and Tears

Tummy aches and tears

When we were little, that marked

a bad day.

Aches and tears can be reactions

to uncomfortable and not so awesome 

events.

But aches and tears can be reactions

to too comfortable and very awesome 

events.

Like

Laughing so much we have to clutch

our tummies because, man, when have we

ever worked out this hard?

Laughing so much we have to wipe our eyes 

every five seconds because our bodies simply

can't contain the overflowing joy within.

Everything is awesome when everyone is

clutching their tummies and wiping their eyes

Together.

In a world full of things to worry us and tear us apart,

there is simply too much to bring us together.

A friend's face caught in time just before they fall,

A hilarious dance move,

An awkward Twister position!

Everything is Awesome when we can laugh together.
