Happiness

Happiness

Happiness from birthdays,
bliss and joy of celebration,
give us beautiful memories,
remembrance and recreation.

We get to learn new things,
new experiences and new rides.
We become a year older
crossing all ebbs and tides.

Cakes, candles and balloons
Friends gather to party.
Long drives, new clothes and food
All so loving and so hearty.

Surprises and b'day greetings
Cards and gifts filling room.
Everyone calling and wishing to us
through chats and video calls on zoom.

Such a marvelous day of year
which everyone wants to be longer,
but it fades out too soon leaving
blissful moments much stronger.

Nothing is bad about this day
except for the great weariness
from enjoying and partying 'round
which is again overpowered by happiness.
