I am happy,
I wake up every morning,
Looking at the golden ray sifting through the mini blind,
Touching Oreo's soft body lying besides me,
Feeling her love traveling from my finger tips to my heart,
I'm happy.
I open my computer,
Reading the e-mails from all my friends far or near,
Feeling their kindness in their words,
I'm happy.
I walk down stairs,
Oreo and Tommy follow me every step,
Looking at me with their eager eyes,
Knowing these two furry friends love me,
And I can return their love with food, and my gentle strokes,
I'm happy.
I make a cup of coffee,
Watching the steam rising from the cup,
Smelling the bitter-sweet aroma,
Knowing I don't need to rush to work like before, at least not for a while,
I'm happy.
I walk to my garden,
Caressing the soft petals of another newly bloomed rose,
Picking a ripe tomato from the entangled vines,
Cutting a hibiscus blossom, putting it in my glass vase,
I'm happy.
I sit in front of my computer,
Amazed by the thoughts flowing to my mind effortlessly,which
Turn into beautiful words eventually,
I'm happy.
Occasionally, I receive a phone call from some one,
Telling me how much she misses me,
And together we soothes each other's aching heart,
I'm happy.
Really, I'm fine, happy like a bird,soaring in the sky in solitude,
I don't need anything outside to make me happy,
Because I have found happiness in my heart.
And no one can tell me I'm wrong.
