Happiness is:
Finding a pencil that’s been chewed,
Telling the time, learning to whistle,
Tying your shoe, for the very first time,
Playing the drums, in your own school band.
Happiness is:
Two kinds of ice cream, pizza with sausage,
A warm blanket, a warm puppy,
Knowing a secret,
Walking hand in hand.
Happiness is:
Climbing a tree, five different crayons,
Catching a firefly, and setting him free,
Being alone every now and then,
Coming home again.
Happiness is:
Having a sister,
Sharing a sandwich, getting along,
Singing together when day is through,
Those who sing with you.
Happiness is:
Morning and Evening,
Daytime and nighttime,
Anyone, and anything at all,
That is loved by you.
~ Paraphrased from Peanuts by Charles M. Schulz
