We measure it
By long walk
long-term
long run;
By the fine line
of horizon
and skyline;
By the seashore
with sunshine.

Can't count the waves
Can't count the sand,
Yet we measure happiness
when we felt it
by the hand.

Linked to our success
we measure it
from our contentment
or from our excess.

Or short-term
short cuts, short hair
or heirs - happiness
that can't be counted
by fingers.

Some measure it
from grass
to greens
from leaf
to twigs
from branches
up to the garden
with fences.

Some
from pile of shoes
or books
or dishes.

At times
we miss some pieces.
Coz the 𝑢𝑛𝑠𝑒𝑒𝑛
completes our hearts
and wishes.
(Matthew 5:3)
