Happiness

Remember when I was small Never had to worry bout anything Every morning when I awake Had breakfast and start playing Playing cricket and football Going in the bush for guava And the garden with my father Planting dasheen and cassava But time goes away quickly And just like the morning mist And leave you with memories Of your time of happiness Remember across the street Harry was getting married Then I got really sick And my parents was worried Saturday we went by dr Maslin Who send me to the hospital? Sunday was the wedding Never got a chance to go at all After 3 weeks in the ward Went to a place for convalescing And it was 3 years after That I get to see home again I grew up a lot in there Made some friends I still miss I cried when I reach home It was a return of my happiness I know that every one of us Have a time of innocent happiness And no matter how old you get In your mind it will always exist Today’s social media Allow lost friends and families To get in touch with each other After many years of obscurities And many will spends hours Just trying to reminisce Of the times in their life’s When happiness exists And the friends we have today Are the ones we will have tomorrow? And we will help each other smile When comes a day of sorrow As the days and years gone by We will remember times like this And the people who pass thru our life’s Like the friends on our social media list And in our travels thru life We will see a lot of sadness Many in the world never seen A moment of happiness
