What Makes Me Happy

My happiness,
lies, in my merriment!
My happiness,
lies, in my commitment!

I'm happy,
when in good health; i'm not
lacking!
I'm happy,
when in contest; i'm not losing!

Always happy,
to see the green field ever grow!
Always happy,
to see the blue stream ever flow!

I get happy,
when people see me, as not a 
foe!
I get happy,
when i'm embraced from head 
to
toe!

As happiness treasure!
Comes from one's pleasure!
I reduce my work pressure!
By writing at my leisure!

Always happy,
that most times; i'm always busy!
Always happy,
that; i'm not known to be lazy!

I'm also happy,
when my dad, is in his smiling
mood!
I'm also happy,
when my mum, is serving the
food!

I'm happy,
that my parents, are proud of 
me!
I'm happy,
that you all, also loves me!

For the Carol brown, being 
happy's
contest.
