Happy Me - a Poem for dVerse Poetics
Happy Fellow
I am happy happy
Most of the time that way
Have a smile on my face
even more than that
What makes me so happy
Say because I was born
I didn't have to be
Who said "we don't like kids"
My father wanted me
I milked cows and did chores
And so did my mother
A happy companion
Grandpa named me Smiley
cause I smiled all the time
Happy to be with him
I was Grandma's pet too
When I grew up, married
had a happy marriage
Even when we divorced
free, happy then, three years
Met a new wife for me
Right away I liked her
and she liked me also
She's happy pioneer
Now that I'm old and gray
I'm happy even if
Even if one cripples
Even if one lives no more
Fifty-one together
Makes me happy hearing

I like your positive outlook on life. Well done.
Jim, I'm glad you chose that image to write to. It suits you, as you like to "keep on the sunny side of life."
Being happy is the best way to live.
May the happiness last forever!
May you live happily and keep smiling like your name- Smiley!
Is that name for real or just for the poem?
A very happy post!
Proof we can be happy no matter our circumstance.☺️
A happy anniversary to you(all), and many more! Fifty-one is a wonderful number!
