Happiness Is
____________________________________
Happiness is a sunny beach
Far from the summer’s white hot reach
Happiness is a muddy trail
With only boulders for guardrail
Tell me what’s wrong with gray skies
Nature’s all lovely in my eyes
*
Happiness is a rainy day
Liquid music tapping away
Happiness is the thundersnow
Ominous green skies all aglow
What’s wrong with an obscured sunrise
Nature’s all lovely in my eyes
*
Happiness is limbs dark and stark
Admiring the subtle bark
Happy is getting to explore
With the loving man I adore
Luckily I’ve come to realize
Nature’s all lovely in our eyes.
