WHY AM I SO HAPPY SOMETIMES? <br /> <br />Why am I so happy sometimes? <br />I just don’t understand- <br />When I was a child <br />I could never understand <br />What the word ‘happiness’ meant- <br />Now in my old age <br />I just do not understand the happiness <br />That overwhelms me sometimes- <br /> <br />Just walking <br />Just sitting reading and writing <br />Just thinking <br />Just dreaming <br />The happiness that overwhelms me <br />And makes me thank God <br />I am alive.<br /><br />Shalom Freedman<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/why-am-i-so-happy-sometimes/
