Happiness

A cold winter evening,
Hot chocolate & marshmallows,
A good book,

Warm feet,
Happiness.

 Early mornings,
The soft chirp of a sparrow,
A new rose bloom,
The fragrance of lemon grass,
Hot tea.
Bliss

Smiles all around you,
A tear gleaming in the corners of your eyes,
Hard work pays.
Quiet joy.

 A call from your loved one,
Your pet waiting for you by the door as you enter,
Traveling into the wilderness,
A kiss under the stars,
Sea shells and star fish,
Making someone smile,
Dancing till your feet hurt,
Meeting a long lost buddy.

Happiness is simple.
Isn't it?

Always on the go, stuck in a rut, we are often living the life of a robot, connected 24X7 by technology-phone call...
