As the funny quote goes, “Never take life seriously; nobody gets out alive anyways.”  As oddly as that statement is, it also is so true.  Funny poems help us be grounded in life.  With all the stressors of life and the sometimes overwhelming lifestyles today and work we need to take some time and allow ourselves some time to have a good laugh.  Humorous poems are found through history especially in old English pub songs and Celtic folk songs, which laid the foundation for Limericks in the future.  Story telling, which is one of the first ways humans recorded history orally, grew out of the playful, self –entertainment needs of humans.  Funny stories and poetry satisfy the needs to sometimes explain the surrounding physical world so that we don’t allow daily mundane stressors to take charge of our lives.  Funny poems are an antidote for relief from the world’s hardships.

These Funny Poems combine humor, wit and wisdom to make you smile and laugh. Enjoy! Funny poems such as limericks evoke laughter, which encompasses happiness.  They provide a variety of wit to it that conventional writing styles would not permit.  Comical relief is always good and sets one in a good mood.  There is an endless array of inspirational humorous poems to be put into writing.

One of the most common forms of funny poetry is the limerick.  The history of the limerick is dubious but best found its start in 14th century England as short humorous lyrics in pubs.  Shakespeare often used them in his works to add a bit of wit.  They were popularized in the Victorian age as nonsensical funny children poetry but also shared other major themes, such as:  love poems, drinking songs, poems of national affair, and satires on public figures. 

Imagery in funny poems will hit the right cord.  They have a keen awareness of its separate elements and being able to give them out in just the right measurements.  Humorous stories are able to replace the natural arc of stories the reader is used to receiving a certain way to have a pleasant laugh.

Feeling down, depressed, or overwhelmed?  What better remedy than a good laugh?  What is the risk?  The only symptoms are a smile on your face and if it is a good laugh a stomach pain and tears from joy.  Funny poems, such as limericks, are a great therapeutic method of taking off some of the stresses of life.  Laughter is a common language that all can identify with; it is a language that spans beyond words.  With funny poems as the bait you can use the powerful and pervasive energy of laughter to bring people together.  To have funny poems makes life more enjoyable and helps people of all languages speak the same language of laughter.  So delve in some great funny poems and have yourself a giggly drink of laughter of some creative and funny poetry
