How Happy

Good friends to greet, great food to eat,

and family with me.

True love so sweet; to feel complete!

How happy life can be!

This is a wonderful entry into the contest, one of the best I've seen! Those four things are surely what happiness brings, friends, food, family, and the inclusion of Love within those three! Tremendous poem my friend! Great Work!!

Loved ones are the essence of happiness. Food made with loving hands also adds to the memories. This is lovely Andrea!
