Happiness
by Kevin C. Krinke
Happiness is the silent breaking of dawn
When the moon recedes and darkness is gone
Happiness is a flowing wisp of her hair
When it catches a ray of the golden sun’s glareHappiness is a long conversation with depth
When the coffee is warm and words steal your breath
Happiness is a sweet moment that’s drawn
When it takes some time yet does not feel longHappiness is that connection of eyes
When the clouds break and open the skies
Happiness is the smooth voice on your ear
When the words spoken ring true and clearHappiness is sharing the depths of the mind
When the emotion is strong yet pleasantly kind
Happiness is excitement enthralled
When the world seems to have slowly stalledHappiness is found in every glorious day
When nothing can take nature’s beauty away
Happiness is the silent breaking of dawn
When the moon recedes and darkness is gone
