LISA'S LAUGH


 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
There is that famous smile, of course,
Which people always remember,
And the mischievous chuckle
And the sexy grin with full headlights on,
But most of all, it is Lisa’s laugh
That I might love best of all.
Full-throated and loud,
It is a sudden and honest sound,
Which comes from her belly
And up through that largest of hearts,
Proclaiming how good it is to be alive.

(2013)
 
After Lisa's health-scare in 2012, we've been through a transitional
period which hasn't been easy, but which could have been so much
harder had it not been for her bravery and positive attitude.
 
When we've been to comic films or plays in the theatre, that laugh
of hers really rings out. Each time we've seen the brilliant satirical
vocal group Fascinating Aida, I end up remarking that I bet they'd
love to take her with them on their tours...
