HAPPY

I'm happy when the sunset

stains the evening sky,

when on a windswept shoreline

hearing seabirds cry,

When family are gathered,

when friends enjoy a meal,

enjoying loving company

I have that happy feel.



I'm happy in a forest

with trees that tower above,

especially when I share it

with someone whom I love.

Resting in a garden

in dappled, leafy shade

listening to the songs of birds

nesting in the shade.



Things that make me happy

are life's most simple pleasures.

Lilies growing in green grass

to me are worthy treasures.

I am a happy person

as all around me shown

are beauties of creation,

gifts from a heavenly throne.
