I Wanna be Happy

          
       When skies are gray 
      and days are long,  
    I find my smile and sing  
   a song. Through trials tough  
   and moments slow, I chase  
    the sun, let my heart glow.  

     I wanna be happy,  
       that’s my aim,  
       To find the joy  
    in every frame. In laughter’s  
       light and simple cheer,  
     I’ll spread my wings  
     and soar sincere.  

     With every sunrise, I’ll  
     embrace, the beauty  
     of this endless chase.  
     Through ups and downs,  
     I’ll hold on tight, to  
      dreams that spark  
    and futures bright.  

   So here’s to smiles and  
    hearts so free, to finding  
     joy in all I see. I wanna  
     be happy, come what may,  
     and live each moment  
       in a joyful way.

Sweet, yet sincere. Joyful, without a trace of 'jaded-ness.' Two thumbs up! ~ Gershon
