Sometimes we sit and wonder why
It was someone we love, turn to die
We take the time we need to cry
And take comfort in knowing, he can now fly.

We know he’s in a better place
As our smile slowly returns to our face.

By Trish

Happiness
Is it getting everything you want,
Is it not making a single mistake in life,

Is it everyone liking you,
But not for who you are

Is it telling their secrets to everyone,
Just to make yourself feel better,

This is what you’re doing to everyone,
And they wont know what happiness is
Until you know what you are doing to them…

By Jacqueline Teran

I had a dream it was a fright
And I woke up in the night
I couldn’t sleep it was to bad
So I couldn’t close my eyes
It was to weird and freaky
I even shiverd and I thought
Of happy thoughts then it went away

By Mayley

Dear Happiness,

You are the hope in the midst of our souls.
You are the faith that comes with high goals.
You are the meaning of ecstatic bliss.
You are the feeling of a loving mother’s kiss.

You are the sensation of everlasting love.
You are an angel sent down from above.
You are the wrapping of a wonderful gift.
When our lives are fading, to you we drift.

When nothing in our lives seems to go right,
You banish the night and replace it with light.
You are a field of roses in the prairies of life.
You are the redeemer when we suffer from strife.

You enter joyfully when displeasures depart.
You are the main element in what we call “heart.”
You are our relaxation; to you we are loyal,
When the rest of the world is swarming with toil.

You are the emotion when we overcome our fear.
You are the reaction when it’s praise that we hear.
You are the savior, when life takes its snipe.
When we are feeling blue, our tears you wipe.

But then again, what follows you is sorrow.
Whenever you leave, grief arrives on the morrow.
What I’ve always wanted to say, I’m saying today.
Even when misery hits, don’t go too far away.
