What keeps us happy?

A simple question,

which churns our mind.

Answer lay so many ,

differs with every other.

For the people from the streets,

food at a time makes them happy.

For the peasants, it's the rain

and rich in the luxury.

The varying answers

for this beautiful question.

For me happiness is hope.

A one word answer.

The hope for love.

The hope for peace.

And it goes on.

The hopes I live on.

I feel happy walking with the nature,

or walking with my friends.

I feel happy when I

make someone smile.

Those who know how

difficult to cross the bridge.

feels happy when they cross the  same,

so does someone else

The happiness felt in my heart.,

when the cold breeze brushes past me.

When the sun makes its way through the dark clouds

or when the first drop of rain falls on my cheeks.

As a kid, a candy made me happy.

By the time passed the smile

brought by the candy

was gone with the changing needs.

I am here, a reason to be happy.

There are many things

which makes me happy,

not limited to this piece of sheet.

Or I don't know what makes me happy.

The Two Pearls

The candles lit and the light has spread.

Her glowing face and that sparkling eyes,

Took me to a dream I had.

The two shining pearls, difficult to find.

One worth life and other worth death.

I one who owns it, that  man I saw.

I could sense his purest heart,

Which helped him find the precious pearls.

His days were like my golden dreams.

Both the pearl in hand,

He is the one  living the life.

When others just follow it.

I asked him to help me find

Those scared pearls.

He told me ”look for those,

With an open heart and open eyes.

Who may know that you could find”.

I was happy that now,

I found one in her sparkling eyes.

She was with me to find the other.

I don’t think I may find it,

But we won’t quit till our time will ends.

Now I think I found both.
