Humor

When days were going bad,

like you are stuck in quicksand,

and life keep making you sad,

due to situations or things you lack. 

There might be some setbacks,

troubles that keep coming back,

with no escape, you feel bound,

losing your joy, you feel down. 

Those were the times,

your patience gets tested,

forcing you to make choices,

to resign yourself or fight back.

You keep the hope alive,

through courage or perseverance,

everyday striving for a better future,

gaining new grounds or lost positions. 

But, it's a long journey,

which keep draining energy,

how would you keep going,

without plans for troubleshooting? 

Something that help you bear,

while giving yourself due care,

letting you face the challenges, 

with intensity and efficiency. 

Humor...

That breaks the chain of misery,

doesn't have to be any trickery,

just a frame of mind, your temperament, 

that let you slide minor disappointments. 

Helping you to remain sober,

rein your senses, controlling emotions,

lightening the mood, reducing hostilities, 

even create a spark, an out of box solution. 

So find the jest in daily strife, 

some silly smirk, a playful life, 

let it mend, your shattered knife, 

for, laughter heals, as spirit rise.
