Happiness

• Catherine Parr, Grade 9

Happiness can be seen by others
But only felt by you
For some being happy is
Laying in the grass in the sun watching the would go by
For others it could be
Working with stock at a dusty cattle station
Or maybe it’s being
Snuggled up in bed when it’s cold outside
Sometimes it’s
Jumping in the ocean on a hot summer day
Or simply
Falling in love
But for everyone it’s
When you’re with family and friends
