Happiness

A short poem about happiness in general.

Happiness is when you open your eyes
To the person you love
Happiness is when you close your eyes
With the person you love
By your side
Happiness is when you
Can feel

The love of your family

The love of the man or woman you love

Happiness is the love

Of a child

Of a friend

Happiness does not

Come from money

Or material possessions

Happiness comes from

Love

Friendship

Trust

Joy

Happiness is a feeling
Happiness can be a state of mind
Happiness is so many things
To so many people
Happiness
Is
Everything

I like this poem! i love Happiness, i would rather be happy than sad :) I love the concept of your poem, the layout. I think though, if you played around with it a bit more, focus on your stanza's and metering, it would be easier to read, bring more of a flow with the words. Some punctuation would make this poem perfect. good starting block, well done :)

Oh I love this, happiness is a state of mind.
It's hard work to be happy sometimes.
Being greatful for what you have
helps me be happy.

Well said SM, You hit on the heart of the matter with your words: Money does not come from money or material possesions. When we reach the end of our road in life it's the friendships and love that will be the biggest treasure. Great job.
