And Then I Will Be Happy
I gazed upon a garden
Hoping the flowers would help
cheer me up in this cold and heartless world.
I could easily think of the bad things
But really, what good would that do for me?
I stop myself from thinking
And I put my mind to rest
I think of all the good and happy things.
I think of Adventure across the seas
Of fighting Pirates and curing disease.
I think of the colored trees
Blowing in the Autumn Breeze.
I think of spring flowers that bring the bees
And rain, with the rainbow it guarantees
Whenever I'm alone I think of these.
I then think of lavish Kings
With gold necklaces and Rings.
I will also think of a bird that sings
And flies around on its silvery Wings.
The Earth bringing forth its freshwater Springs
And Soon the Darkness will leave
And then I will be happy.
