Legacy of Laughter

Life handed him a few hard knocks;

Sometimes his luck was bad.

He had the most unusual ups and downs

As most of us have had.

Grief had its day along his way,

Great fortune passed him by.

But he always came out a winner

With a twinkle in his eye.

This legacy of laughter,

A gift from some forbear.

Was all the weapon that he had

To fight life’s pain and care.

But he kept his sense of humor,

And he laughed away the tears.

And he went on spreading chuckles,

All around him down the years.

And I know we’ll find him waiting,

When we join him by and by.

Likely joshing with the angels,

With that twinkle in his eye. <3
