Happiness is all within me,
I don't need heaven to see.
The Gods or angels need not be,
sent with all wealth and gifts in glee.

The sun shines serenly,
Moon moves mournfully.
Wait.......,
I am not lovesick.
My words won't suck.
The sun smiles sweetly.
Moon loves amply.
The clouds and stars in ego
to sacrifice their love on the go.

I don't need one to move mountains
Or anyone to take such pains,
to make me feel happy or blessed.
I am in myself content and obsessed.

I am happy with a sunny rainbow
A stream chattering in its flow.
the grasses of spring in flower show
or trees with the breeze bending low.

I am so happy with the dried flowers
strewn in the busy roads for hours.
I am happy with the earth in parch
in sun or the marshes or gorge.

People say, my smile lighten
their mind and soul often.
Even when my heart bleeds
A smile is what my soul needs.
A simple curve at the lips
fills my heart with naughty chirps.

A rainbow is feasible
only when rain drenches sunshine.
A fruit is possible,
only when flowers allow bees to dine.

Just understand,
The entire world can be there
to lead your heart to warfare.
But its only you who can seal
the broken heart to heal.

You may be broken
by people now or then.
They use you for love
and you so innocent to allow.

You don't need to groan at most
always for someone lost.
Just think there are many to love.
Your happiness is what you can give.
Don't put your heart
in pain's confinement.
Happiness always comes from within.
And open your heart for joy to come in.❣️❣️
