THIS OR THAT

Happiness

Is it when you are bright and can dream,
Or when you retire and must sleep?
Is it when mortals own businesses on land,sky and sea,
Or when you are skillful and can cash out on every queen?

Is it when you take a job reluctantly on?
And you are paddled on with modest or high wage?
And you can't fly away when you think you are done?
No;Happiness is when you fall in love and you are satisfied with your cage.

Happiness is not when you have all the notes to buy your daily bread,
It is not when your body can wear any golden clothes if it so want them,
Not when your mind is insecured and your body,relentless,
But when you are as worthless as stray cats,yet you breath freshness inside you,that is happiness.

Happiness is when you have a thousand energy running through you though you ride solo,
Happiness is when you know you don't know everything there is to know,
Happiness is when your good act is spoken by strange echo,
And in death or life,you are not alone.
