Out of nowhere, I can erupt
A peaceful calm, I may disrupt
My trigger, one might not expect
Those around me, I may infect
The atmosphere, I may brighten
By stimuli, I delight in
From one to the next, I vary
My echoed sentiment merry
What am I?

Your answer is better. Well done.
Except for a couple of lines, I thought it was a volcano. The "making people merry" let me know I was wrong, but it is not a favorite. It was nice to have a new one though so thanks for that.
My first thought was volcano and then lightening. Laughter never even occurred to me. But the explanation kind of made sense though, I guess.
Cleverly written! Thanks for a good one!
Thanks for all of your comments.
I had lightning also; nice job!
I agree with other comments. I jumped to volcano, but then realized the true answer later in the riddle. Nicely done!
