The second of my collections of poems written for "Express It In Eight."

As usual these days, I choose blog format because it offers more space for the work.

Laughter as Medicine

Do you know my friend Solace?
My father’s middle name was Horace -
I’m sorry but it rhymes,
or maybe it’s the times
and I’m dreaming in the forest.

It may appear that I’m crazy
although I’d walk more than a mile
just to see Solace raise a smile!

Prompt was there none but get better, Solace!
