POETRY The key to happiness

The key to happiness

If there were such a thing, where would it be?

Would it be hidden? Or on view to see

Would it come with instructions or rules?

Would we possess the necessary tools?

What guides us on our journey through the mire?

Finding true happiness and loves passionate fire

Can we explain that spark that ignites the flame?

When the feeling is mutual two hearts the same

The trouble is without a clue the ride isn’t always nice

And at times inevitably we will pay a high price

Happiness is something that we cannot measure

At time’s we feel pain and then lasting pleasure

The starting point as always lies within

If you are unhappy with yourself, you cannot begin

Make the decisions and address what you need to do

Don’t give up, and whatever you decide to yourself be true!

Inevitably, not everyone will be completely happy

You are not their mum; you don’t have to change their nappy

Why waste time when we do not know how long we have got

Life is an appointment and we must make the most of our slot

Be happy and enjoy each day as if it was the last

Live life in the here and now, not dwelling on the past

Feeling guilty is definitely not good for the mind, body or soul

Without direction we are holding the wheel, but out of control

Follow your heart and that is where you will find

A lasting happiness to give you peace of mind

And once you have dealt with all the pain and stress

You will finally be able to enjoy lasting happiness
