Ode to Happy

The stock market's down
Traffic's really bad
Life's full of stresses
My wallet's real sad

Where is the happy
Where is the joy
How does one find it
While the world does anoy

Yet, my health is quite strong
My wife is the best
I have a roof overhead
My kids are well dressed

My stomach is full
My job is still there
We have lots of pets
I still have my hair

Happy is my choice
I'm told time and again
It's all in my head
with haromony and zen

Choose to be happy
Choose life without stress
Choose life without "No"
Choose answers with "Yes"

Kiss the wife a bit longer
Pet the dog one more time
Tell your kids that you love 'em
Write bad poems with ryhme

Let the bad days come
But dream all the big dreams
Watch the clouds float by
Hear the birds and streams

Where is the happy
Can I keep all the highs
Happy's already with me
I'll just open my eyes
