Cup of Coffee

poem by Nilly

What does happiness feel like?

It's the right song

at the right time.

It's a cup of coffee in the morning

with peace on your mind.

It's knowing things aren't right

but they will be.

It's believing.

It's the wind in your hair,

the first hint of spring.

It's leaving behind fear,

letting go of things.

Beautiful poem. I had a cup-of-coffee moment this morning and I've been feeling it all day. There are too few good poems about happiness in my experience. This is a good one. Its a nice reminder of the good things. Thank you for writing.

I totally agree. you hit the nail on the head.
I like the way you described happiness. I don't think you've left anything out.
a light and pleasant little poem. I liked it.
