Laughing Poem by Leigh Ladd

I'm finding so much humor,
In a situation that's so rough.
I guess I just need to laugh,
Instead of trying to act so tough.

Life is on the right track,
Love is in the air.
The best there is in a romance novel,
Then it turns into a black comedy.

I wonder if ironic is the word,
I believe it to be the one that's used.
Instead it might be karma,
I'm becoming more amused.

Life has come to a complete stop,
Love is no longer around.
The best there is in a science fiction book,
Then it turns into a horror film.

I grin and smirk and start to giggle,
I'm trying so hard not to smile.
I hold myself down when I begin to wiggle,
It's no use and I laugh and fall into a pile.
