Finding happiness

It is in the rays
Of the rising Sun
It is in the patter
Of the falling rain

It is in the camaraderie
Of aging years
It is in the laughter
Of frolicking children

It is in the warmth
Of a woman’s embrace
It is in the protection
Of a man’s arms

It is in moments
Of blissful silence
It is in the sound
Of beautiful music

It is in the glory
Of a summer day
It is in the serenity
Of a still, dark night

It is in love
Friendship
And family

It is happiness.
