Lifted spirit

You go through a few seasons when lows are the permanent fix
You wondered where the laughter comes from to add that in the mix.

The other day I was sitting with a friend having a chat and minding our own business,
Then this flamboyant character arrived, which I am pleased I didn’t miss.

With dark skin and wearing a blonde wig
My face was trying to stay balanced as I had my drink to look forward and swig.

I stay humbled as my humour was starting to lift 
As my friend Brian was trying to get me to look at this character as the grin was a welcomed gift.

I then couldn’t stop laughing as the character brought out a side of me which I haven’t felt for ages,
Most of the people I surround myself now with are a tad faded.

This unexpected moment was so much needed 
It was so important for me or anyone else to have this feeling,
This medicine called ‘laughter’ and staying light
Removed the angst of this often negative world… as there was no need to want to fight.
