Are You Happy?

Do you wake up every morning

Looking forward to the day?

Are you happy?

Does the smell of coffee brewing

Put a faint and hopeful grin upon your face?

Are the dreams that you dreamed yesterday

Still living in your heart

Like a sweet desire that cannot be replaced?

 

There are questions to be answered

And tasks to be completed in the offing.

Priorities to order

And people to be greeted on the way.

But this grownup world you’re living in

Shouldn’t kill the child who dwells within your body,

And you owe it to yourself to always

Set aside some time to simply play.

 

So I ask again, quite honestly.

It’s a simple question,

Really…

Are you happy?
