A Happy Heart

There's a mountain climber Enjoying the breeze As he takes a deep breath On a peak among the trees There's a tired girl Relaxing in a shady spot Trying to decide Whether to take a nap or not There's a teenager With music in his ears He's losing himself in the beat And forgetting all his fears There's a distance runner Picking up his slack And he feels a sense of pride Because he's finishing at the head of the pack There's a student Who has just finished a test And she's letting out a sigh of relief Now she can get some rest There's a group of kids Who are trying to leave the heat And as they jump into a pool The cool water swallows them complete There's a man coming off of work His children hug him at the door And in that cherished moment He remembers what he's working for But of all these simple pleasures There's one that reigns supreme Because there's a boy writing a poem About the way love feels with the girl of his dreams.
