Notes About The Poem

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6_Olf6smJ3s

Make Someone Happy

make someone happy
and you will be happy, too
    sweet and to the point

Song: Make Someone Happy(1964)
Singer: Jimmy Durante
A very short romantic song, less than 2 minutes long, but it really spreads a touching, ecumenical message. I wish I played it at my wedding, actually.
