The Happiness Within

You have gone thru the roughest race Reached farthest lands and seas To find the pot of happiness And fulfill your dreamiest wish! You have taken the wildest ride Down there and up so high Swum against the highest tide To seek where happiness lies! In love you have sought happiness You haven't found it in success It isn't there in fame or greatness Nor in the most wonderful place! Having traveled for it many a mile You think where does happiness hide? While it's there for getting all the while Waiting to be reaped from inside.
