    If Happiness Were
    If happiness were a song
    it'd sound like your heart
    precise with every beat
    Only love it imparts.
     
    If happiness were a light
    it'd be bright like your eyes
    where every flicker of color
    and every thought of Hope arise
     
    If happiness were a motion
    it'd move like your hands
    gentle in gesture
    planting love that withstands
     
    If happiness were music
    it'd sound like your laugh
    how it fills the air
    free and without a care.
     
    If happiness were a book
    it'd read like your soul
    filled with sadness, love, and adventure
    where inspiration unfolds
