Work Text:

There are many things that go into being happy

If over dramatic, then many of them are sappy

But simplistically, you see

You can be happy subtly

Happy can be the rays of days at sunset

Or happy can be the feelings of someone you met

Happy can be the rainbow after the rain

Or happy can be the rain puddles that remain

Happiness is near and far

But some of the things i wonder are

How can you be happy when you’re sad?

What can you do then to make you glad?

You think of happy things that make you smile?

You sing a happy song and dance a while?

 

I think of happiness as the smile you see

From a person who knows that you can’t always be

Happy

And that life should be fun while it lasts

So be happy and don’t dwell too much on the past

Notes:

This poem was written when I was about 16. And though the message may get a little muddied and the wording may be simplistic, it still leaves me feeling a little more optimistic every time I read it. I hope it can help someone else too.
