Happiness

Author: Aiyza Javaid

Happiness sets in and disappears

every now and then

We can never be certain just when

So when joy and happiness sets

in, cherish each hour

Because happiness builds a

rejoice filled tower

Jubilation and elation it fills

you from within

It can even make your heart sing

The peace of mind happiness can show

Can make you and others glow

So with the onset of happiness,

nurture it to make it last

Let go of the troubles of the past

One need not to be doubtful

that it can go

For it can sow a seed for

tomorrow to grow

For wherever you go, instill

and carry happiness with you!
