The One Who Has Laughter Poem by Francis Duggan

Such joy to the people nearby it does bring
The sweet sound of laughter a wonderful thing
The one who has laughter everyone wishes to know
In numbers his or her friends everyday seems to grow
The most popular person who lives on your street
The one who has laughter a pleasure to meet
Since few wish to know you when you are feeling down
So lonely and sad the sad sack of the town
But to be wealthy in laughter is to be wealthy indeed
Of more of such people the Human World is in need
They carry joy with them and spread it around
And though in large numbers their type are not known to abound
The people that most people do wish to know
Their friends multiply and in numbers do grow.
