Open your eyes with joy in them <br />For joys and happiness always hem <br />Your day with the stitches of hope <br />And protects you from being in mope <br /> <br />And spend your noon with smiles <br />For smile shares your trouble's pile <br />And returns to shine on you <br />And brings with it fain that is true <br /> <br />And when hours of evening start <br />Then try to practice your learnt art <br />And come forward to occupy joy's seat <br />For happiness works on busy feet <br /> <br />And lastly throughout the night <br />Dream of things that are bright <br />For it will finally end on a pray <br />With the recipe of joy for your day.<br /><br />Seema Chowdhury<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/recipe-of-joy/
