The Happiness of Life

Lazily gazing at the star studded night sky,
Letting go off all the emotions that rise,
Feeling one with the warmth of the universe,
Engulfed and swallowed by the happiness rising within.
 
A dip in the cold water of the lake,
Causing an endearing numbness throughout,
Freezing the mind in its tracks from wandering,
The coldness causing an inner warmth and glow.
 
The soft music invigorating a tired mind,
The eerie feeling of the music hugging and kissing,
And magically energizing the body and soul;
Bringing out the sublime treasures of life.
