Happy
When I Jump
And dance,
And sing,
And prance,
That’s how you can tell I’m happy.

When I shoot,
And soar,
And spin,
And roar,
That’s how you can tell I’m happy.

When I laugh,
And wiggle,
And babble,
And giggle,
That’s how you can tell I’m happy.

But when I mope,
And sigh,
And sulk,
And cry,
Don’t ask me if I’m happy.

It’s only when I hoot,
And tease,
And lark,
And please,
That you can really tell I’m happy.

This was written after a friend and I managed to work ourselves into hysterics over the smallest thing. It made me appreciate how easy it is to just be happy for a while.
