Laughter

It begins with an image, idea, or thought

Then a strange, warm, mischievously fluttering feeling courses through your mind and body

A tickle, no, maybe it’s more like an itch that makes its way to one corner of your mouth

Then trickles to the other side

Tug – stretch – grin

A burst of rich, bubbly sounds spew like a freshly opened bottle of champagne

Oh, my sides hurt

I can’t stop laughing

Hahahahahaha!

That is so funny

Hahahahahaha!

That was so funny

Ha…ha…ha…!

Ha…ha…!

Ha…!

Tug – stretch – grin
