What a wonderful afternoon,
Walking around the green lawn
Hitting balls towards hoops,
People looking on
As the finals took place.
I hit my last ball through the hoop,
The trophy was mine.
Congratulations were given
And we move on,
Moved on to the icing on the cake.
The five of us went to the local inn,
Sat in the garden and had a drink.
Then it started, the laughter.
Tales of olden times were shared
As our lives seemed to become one,
Sitting there together
Showing how wonderful friendship can be,
And overriding it all was the laughter,
The wonderful laughter between us,
Between us very good friends.

Laughter amongst friends is great. Laughter amongst strangers is even better
Good write Gold.
I turned up and sang, and the laughter stopped. Strange that! lol.

Good luck, mate.

Sounds like you have a ball after a ball of ball bashing. You life is a load of balls dear friend.
Good fun read champ,
it only takes, us forming a connection
with a handful few
to find laughter's cadence, in our lives..

There is nothing quite like laughter among old friends, and you make that point beautifully here. Nicely done.
