Happiness is Like Water

Happiness is like water,

It cannot be caught between your fingers,

And quickly slips through,

Despite your desperate attempts

To catch hold of it, and keep it.

Happiness is like water,

And before it is lost beyond recapture

Pour onto a seed, like an elixir.

The seed needs it,

And will bless you for it.

Happiness is like water,

And as you give it to a seed,

Giving it a new life,    

It gives you fruits,

As a way of repayment,

Fruits are the least expected

And sweetest of joys!
