What Makes Me Happy

It can't be bought
it has no price to be sold
the value of my happiness
is greater than all the World's Gold

Echoing within the walls of my home
silently waiting to be seen by one
Felt deeply within my very soul
its everything that makes me whole.

Never demanding to be seen
or boasting to be felt
It is there for me to treasure
if I can pause from all else.

The giggles of children
the laughter of family
the simple words spoken
that capture so completely.

Sunlight casting through the window
can make the face of a loved one glow
Hushed conversations of imaginations
-that let you know little minds grow.

The little arms that hug and little hands so sweet
these moments that create lifetime memories
Trials we face that pull us together
letting us know this bond is forever.

Happiness in my world surrounds me
waiting quietly to be found...
If blinded by lifes stresses, I might so easily
miss lifes greatest treasures...
         .... in the love that abounds me....
