Happiness.

~~~Daniel J D~~~

Returning home years lost
A child knocks
A mother's dream.

Early spring, a flower blooms
Colours everywhere
Nature's splendour.

Retirement, long working days over
A tired body
An old couple together.

Summer rain, striking rainbows
Freshness of winds
Dampness on the window.

Wedding bells, bride and groom
Love letters, reality
A new child is born.

Cold mornings, snow falling
Slips, and skids
Warmth of home.

Beach, parks and screams
Playful days, cheerful nights
Lazy mornings.

Smiles, smiled, smiling,
Happiness, only one away
Have a happy day!




Respond to my call and let the waves of my heart fill your life with the wonders of love
(Daniel J D)

Prometheus,

Thank you so much. A little happiness is all we need.

Paula,
I am so glad I was able to make you happy. You are so special. I will always be there to support you.

Azure,
Thank you, as long as you have a smile on your face it is all that matters.

Marge,
Without your wonderful words of encouragement, life would be a little tougher, thank you so very much.

Respond to my call and let the waves of my heart fill your life with the wonders of love
