Mondays Poetry Moment

     LAUGHTER

today I was surprised
by laughter
a slow smile graced my face
where,
earlier,
a heavy heart, worry
ruled my world
then for a little while
that lifted
it's like a vacation
from my life
                            a
                               breath
                                         of
                                             fresh
                                                     air
