*Inspired by the song: I can see clearly now Pain drags us down And sometimes we forget What it’s like to be inspired By all life has to offer Until one day, we feel alive Riding the wings of life High enough to see clearly Reborn into freedom After the storms have passed Remember who you are For you may always return To make happiness last Heidi Sands 5/31/18

Happiness is the wind at your back and the sun in your face and accepting the fact that into each life a little rain must fall. I love the positive message in your poem, Heidi. Your poems are almost always uplifting and inspirational. (Great song, too!)

Lovely verse Heidi, seen a picture with this message, life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass but learning to dance in the rain. It's hard but we should try. Tom

Hello Dear Heidi, A wondrous verse here for sure. Storms are always a part of our human existence, but happiness, and our continuous desire for it, are what most of us pursue in this life. At least this is what I've experienced from my perspective. A Great Write!! Best Always, Gary

The storms of life may make us forget that happiness is within reach...Very nicely expressed Heidi.

Hello my good friend. Someone once said "Happiness consists not in having what you want, but wanting what you have."
