Happiness

a poem by Tasneem

Happiness is a thing,
for which everyone is thirsting,
after endless searching,
and fruitless seeking,
Where? How? It leaves everybody asking
And the sun setting
leaves our hearts pondering,
the children are best in answering,
for they find happiness in everything,
yes it is convincing,
in their pure, unadulterated smiling,
who laugh at our foolish thinking
for knowing everything
except such a simple thing!
