Unknown Happiness

I have an unknown happiness, From the bottoms of lakes and roots of apple Trees, fish swim by and inch worms On Branches. My Happiness stretches and inches along. My Happiness is afraid of turning corners, and eats limes And lemons. My Happiness puckers and pouts. I have an unknown happiness. It favors beige trench coats that protect it From the rain, and snow, and weather vanes. My happiness runs marathons, collapses in ditches, Covered with quilts it sewed and knitted. I have an unknown happiness, Would you like to become acquainted?
