Happy
Quite a broad spectrum
of feelings.
Circumstances,
it depends on the circumstances.
Is it a joke,
a short span of smile
Do you have to wedge
two lips upwards with
matchsticks to smile?
Is it side splitting humour
Holding your frame jiggling
up and down, cant stop.
Or is it pride, in your family
A certainty knowing how safe you are,
a new baby, a new spouse,
a new car or a new house.
If you are happy, the whole world
will smile with you.
Smile and you get a smile in return
Frown and you get nothing in return
Just a creased face, which need ironing.
Tears of joy
for a new girl
and a new boy.
Happiness, when your luck
runs into thousands with the
gamble you took,
A smile teeth as white as froth
in your expensive coffee cup.
A new key turned in a lock
the engine's revved up,
the money reflected in your eyes
and you are happy, safe, and well.
Good health and happiness go together -
not necessarily, depends on the weather.
A wheelchair user, happy as Larry
in the rain, cant do unbrellas.
not able to carry
such posh equipment.
"But never mind the weather,
never mind the rain,
here we are together"
and we are happy again.
If you are happy-
for whatever reason.
Celebrate it.
