Happiness

Susan's mid week motif P U


a happy life



a bouquet of happy moments
afforded by
the magnificence of nature
the sea and sand
swimming

colours of fruit and flowers
music books movies
creative expression
giggles
side splitting laughter
just about everything
in life is wonderful

making someone's day
making someone smile
generosity in every way
practically and spiritually

giving is the key
to happiness
and loving you
(of course:)
