Be Happy

Listen to your soul each day
and follow where it leads.
Sometimes you might lose your way
or end up in the weeds.

Foolish choices will be made
somewhere along the way.
Yet soon the piper will be paid
so let the music play.

Happy is a state of mind
that's eager to forgive.
Carry on with all you find
and allow yourself to live.
