BIG HAPPY <br /> <br />“You make me <br />so happy! ” <br /> <br />She says. <br /> <br />“Oh, I say! ” <br />I say. <br /> <br />“It’s such <br />a big happy <br /> <br />but it’s made up <br />of all small happies! ” <br /> <br />“The small happy <br />I can hold <br />in my hand <br /> <br />but the big happy <br />is like the sky! ” <br /> <br />She clutches me <br />hugs my knee <br />kisses my kneecap <br /> <br />then goes <br />out again <br /> <br />shouting to the dolly <br />she left sitting in the sand pit. <br /> <br />“It’s ok...I’m back! ”<br /><br />Dónall Dempsey<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/big-happy-for-lyn/
