The Best Medicine

His laughter 
Took me to fields of clover 
bare feet, and bubbling brooks 
and pomegranate juice dripping all over   
His laughter made me lie back 
as some serious chill factor sifted into my space 
The salmon sands of time faded to alabaster, 
and drifted thru the hourglass like snow, at a sedentary pace   
Perched upon that porch swing, his laughter and I 
counted distant stars and prancing fireflies 
Here...was the crisp night air and the midnight sky 
Gone, were the daily worries, hurries, and wonder whys   
His laughter just took me there... 
To... the soothing hum of a kitten's purr 
while petting that fluffy ball of fur 
To... the sun setting behind a rainbow veil 
adrift in a vessel of peace, I set sail 
To...a sultry rumba, strategically slow 
the fluidity of the bodies, the ebb and the flow 
That laughter took me 
To me... 
Back to the me I forgot was there 
And for that ease, that...serenity 
I thank you...
