Living

I have found my pot of happiness
After having lost it in the strife..

A heart full of laughter,
A handful of joy,
Unlimited Love -
That is what I have...

Life is what I make it;
Not what I take...

Flowers, moon & sky-
All singing with joy!

Smiling, my heart too sings out-
O! I've found my joy!!!

Its all in my heart,
Its all in my being
As I spread my wings
And life blooms out...

Let me fly in the blue sky
With none, but Thy...

Let me be like this - now and ever;
Let me be here - forever!

Yes, It was about time some happy vibes came from here... Somehow, it is easy to write on sorrow that joy!!!
