With a Gladsome Heart

With a gladsome heart, I set out to the world, Through valleys and hills, my spirit unfurled, I wandered far and wide, with no fear or doubt, My soul filled with joy, as I journeyed about. The sun shone bright, with its warm golden light, And the flowers bloomed, in a rainbow of delight, The birds sang sweetly, with their melodious voice, And my heart rejoiced, in their songs and their poise. I met many people, on my way through life, Some filled with happiness, some filled with strife, But I carried on, with my head held high, For I knew in my heart, the truth couldn't lie. With each step I took, I grew stronger and bolder, For the world was my oyster, and I was its soldier, I faced every challenge, with a fearless heart, And emerged victorious, in every single part. The mountains I climbed, were steep and high, But I never faltered, or let out a sigh, For with a gladsome heart, I faced every trial, And triumphed over each obstacle, with a smile. As I look back, on my life so far, I see a path, that's been both bright and bizarre, But I'm filled with joy, and a sense of pride, For with a gladsome heart, I've lived, and I've thrived. So I'll keep on journeying, through life's ups and downs, With a gladsome heart, and a smile that knows no bounds, For the world is a treasure, that's waiting to be found, And with a gladsome heart, I'll explore it, unbound.
