HAPPY DAYS

O! Happy Days.
When I sit at the terrace,
Staring lovingly at the horizon,
When I lie on the hammock,
And I feel the peaceful breeze course through my body,
When I sway on the rocker,
And the golden rays wash atop my face,
Then I think aloud, o happy Day it is.
When I stare at the beautiful countryside filled with scenes of green,
The birds soar across the sky in beautiful evening pattern,
The sunset places orange dots on my eyeballs,
The bats and egrets swirl in undulating pattern as I wonder at the peace and rest the evenings offer at the closing of the day,
I wonder aloud, o! happy day it is.
As I travel across cities and villages, I see the beauty of nature,
I see the green life in each day and the large mass that nature occupies,
Marvellous views presented at each stop by the sand with it's creamy shine,
As I strive for bread each day, I see the stress that courses through each day,
The trouble, sweat, pain and blood that encompasses each hour,
Then I get on my bed at night and see through the windows, the peaceful coexistence of the moon and the stars,
I see the peace, rest and happiness at the end of each day,
I say to myself, O! Happy day.
When I pass through people each moment,
I see the tears, anger and happiness in emotions,
I see the vain strife of each day and the
Unwillingness to accept the hands of nature and fate,
I see as fate direct the affairs of every being bereaved of our emotions and action; how destiny sets humanity's journey in life and how futile efforts to reverse it are,
That if we accept and live the moment,
If the gracefulness and hands of fate are accepted; if each moment is lived like the best,
If we leave the past and worry less about the future,
Everything in the moment is done to it's fullness and happiness; thing worth doing done well,
Then can we see the happy days.
