The Laughing Therapy

A baffle(d) encounter with Buddha 
The laughing therapist 
What did this cat, hear so funny,  I missed 


The joke is on me, the joke is on me 
I walked by a park in the middle of spring 
With birds in trees, sat in nests, happily singing 


I came across a group of elegant middle-class homo-sapiens 
On their backs, a belly full of laughter 
Laughing out loud; jokes, jokes, I like a good joke  


What was the joke, I asked with excitement 
No joke, was the reply "this is a laughing therapy" 
Fair enough I said, again I asked what was the joke 


Lets hear it out, I like a good laugh 
I am all for a good laugh, just give me the punch line 
"No joke my fellow homo sapien, just a laugh"


Just a laugh? "its just a laugh" negate a joke 
I wondered, have I slept and missed 
The great evolution of man, was the joke on me 


For I can not, laugh, without hearing something funny 
I can not laugh without seeing something funny 
Come on what is the joke, I like a good joke, a tickle would do 


Modern day hysteria, how could I have missed such leap 
Such great evolution and be left standing over a bunch 
Of homo-sapiens, with yoga mats, on the park laughing 


Guess the joke is on me, the joke is on me 
"No joke", the joke is on me, now that's a punch line 
I could hear the birds  a belly full of chatter, jokers with laughter 


The joke is on me   
Well, wait until the cat gets you, birdy, birdy
Then I would have my laughing therapy

Charlie Chaplin

Oh Charlie , back when I was so young 
And the box set, I sat in front  
Only showed in black and white, so small  


No words spoken to show intent, signs 
Act, actions, oh but you made me laugh so loud 
And I brought the house down, with giggles   


Like the house of cards, tumbling, rolling with belly laughs 
Running in fast forward, on walk steps, dance steps
On two legged fork doing the one, two step 


You knew how to wow the girls, so much, you show off
Moving in cartoonish ways with sway 
Oh Charlie, oh Charlie, oh Charlie Chaplin  


What good old classics, truly time tested  
You gave to me in gift of joy and laughters 
Like clock works you never failed to amuse, like clock works


You made me laugh a thousand laughs, belly laughs  
Tears in my eyes, my jaw hurts, I ask for more 
Just on silent movies, oh  what such classics  


Oh what such happiness 
You brought to my door step 
Oh Charlie, oh Charlie, oh Charlie Chaplin 

Off On A Tangent 2

Eureka moment of enlightenment  
Boom, not bomb, silly you , Archimedes   
When layers of conundrums are stripped bare  


And a step, a stretch   
Is all it takes, open sesame, clap     
To unveil a master piece, there you have it  


Nothing comes to the lazy man, you lazy cow   
Who sits and wonders what if, if only, could have   
And turns to take a nap in day light   


Mitigating circumstance, when it is too hot  
The Spanish are allowed, it is to be called siesta  
Well what do you expect, try living in the sun 


Okay so like I was saying, lecturing, blabbering   
Who cares, shhh don't wake the Spanish  
The conquistador, they fight bulls  


Like I was saying burning dreams  
With sucked up energy, where was I    
Chain of thought, chain of thought 


Where was I, why was I, chain of thought 
Oh yeah, you know like a sink hole   
Strange that is, always leaves a sense of vulnerability 


Like a sink hole, Alice in wonderland  
There is a reason, in reasons given  
Why we grow out of, part ways with   


Our imaginary friends as adults, as grumpy    
And dreams are to be called ambitions  
Okay another eureka moment  

Grab a pen, ahh I lost it  
Off on a tangent 
Orbiting the earth 

Laughing Loving Laughing

I laugh out loud at your silly jokes   
I get them, funny giggle  
That is you, my happy trigger  


Dancing formation dance in pair   
Synchronised like two dolphins   
Playing their hearts out, affection gained    


The blue sea is wide and treasures filled
Lets treasure hunt, it is your love I seek  
And for us the whole platform to stand   


You smile with a sparkle, shimmering stars     
Treasures bright  your eyes hold belong  
I love it so, forever  you twinkle   


I love to tell a joke or two, 
Three if I am on a row, always on the row
Pull silly faces and tickle your happy spot  

Just to see all the treasures,  your eyes do hide   
I know you will laugh, at my silly jokes  
You get me, my punch line, right, ha ha ha


I get you too, I so much do
Always with the twinkle in your eyes 
I love to see the twinkle in your eyes


Laughing loving laughing out loud
"Little I ask, my wants are few"
Just to see the twinkle in your eyes

In A Day

While days break dawn..
To set in dramas of what..
Characters we choose to play..
In new days..


Punch lines of jokes said..
Between friends gaffes..
By the gaffer, who chooses..
Never to disappoint..


He ushers in the lines, One line..
That sets a minute of awkward silence..
In moments, with stares by all..


To yell, smile or  be angered 
“What is he on about”..
Followed by the jesters laughter..


Comedy of life, we cry inbetween 
Read a chapter of your book of life 
Let me read a chapter of mine


Then to the days end..
Handshakes, hugs, pecks..
Love you, you too..

Till tomorrow brings in a new light..
For in the day we set out roles to play 
And at night we take such costumes off
