Happiness , a smile within
Bubbly lemonade in your mind
A fizz and upliftment of refreshing feelings
Surely it has to be this
Bubbly lemonade
Bubbles floating in the sky
A carefree collection of lightness and sunshine within you
Smiling within your mind
Yellow buttercups singing
and you have a ballerina dancing within you , Pointing her toes in a dance floor
To music that soothes and uplifts her soul
Lemonade within you A carefree collection of bubbles within you
Happiness , nice feelings floating dancing free Uplifting refreshing Feeling lovely inside of your mind Feeling ways that make you want to smile laugh and dance
Inside of you
Happiness isn’t feeling grey clouds within
Or feeling like a flat segment of soil missing the grass that should exist and should be there
It’s not being without but being with
The bubbles and the lemonade the dancer within you
It’s feeling like a beautiful flower instead of feeling like a grey unattractive cloud
It’s feeling like lemonade instead of tap water
Surely it is that bubble and fizz The flowery vibrancy
Feeling like a firework
Being with the lemonade the flowers
Not living with the tap water and the dreary cloud
Not feeling like the soil that should be wuth the grass and flowers but seems to be without
Surely happiness is feeling a smile within
Colours of vibrancy within you Having things outside of you that help you smile that bit brighter
It’s not walking around feeling empty and flat
Doing something apparently fun whilst feeling like you might aswell be reading a tedious book Dancing whilst feeling in your mind that you might aswell be sitting on the sofa
Happiness Is feeling as you should
Being lemonade instead of feeling like tap water
Feeling like laughing because a fun dancer is inside of you
It’s having a real smile within you That gets brighter with all the colours you see every day
Do I know what real happiness is I write this as I feel distant from the words I write on this piece of paper Writing about happiness when to be honest I do not feel enough Is causing tears to stir inside of me
Why am I writing about happiness Because I wander what it would be like to Spend your whole day laughing and smiling
To look back on your day with a sunny smile
Because you e truly had so much fun Do they realise how lucky they are to feel real happiness that I crave for
Happiness is more than feeling peaceful
It’s more than a calmness residing within you
Surely it is peace with a glass of bubbly lemonade

Oh Rose, I pray that you find the sort of day long happiness you are wishing for. You have summed up happiness very aptly. God bless you my dear 🙂
A fine write Rose.
Sometimes we may prefer some 'flat' lemonade. Not that we need feel gloomy or sad all the time, but I mean with bubbly lemonade it can give us the burps, or feeling of the 'bends' which divers get. Not that I been diving.
Mixing metaphors a bit here!
Yet - happiness is 'happen-ness'. I don't trust to it too much, as it can depend on how we react to outward things. Now a bit psychological! ooh!
Bubbly lemonade in deed! What an amazing poem Rose. Thoroughly enjoyable and also highlighting how subjective it all is. A many layered poem. Always the best ones
Thankyou ! 🙂 sometimes I feel so empty and bored ... as if their isn’t enough joy in my days . Sometimes I feel like it’s others who have all the fun . I compare myself to the rest of my family ..
I’m glad you like this poem ... 🙂
Aww I wanna give you a bloomin big hug .. NEVA DOUBT yourself my friend ..................................You are a poet, its just you dont knowit ... I dont usually read other peoples review notes but believe me .. Teddy is write on the ball .. I reckon you are getting better n better ....... x
Thankyou Neville ) kind of you to say . I probably compare myself to others who experience so much in their days ...
It felt helpful to write this .
Thankyou 🙂
at the end of the day, that is what matters the most .......................... x
I have never seen happiness compared to lemonade but it totally makes sense! I love the analogy of rising bubbles… if this has crawled out of your mind and exited through your finger tips it’s definitely in there 😊… poetry has no write or wrongs any feeling of doubt only serves to acknowledge your passion for writing, it’s how we improve … I enjoyed this
Thankyou !🙂 I think there might have been some level of happiness there .. or at least a feeling of calm and some peace maybe , but probably also sadness too ... as I kind of felt a bit empty when writing this and I hadn’t experience much joy in my day .., so I was kind of frustrated . It certainly felt good to get this onto paper tho ... I felt it came with ease . I think it’s difficult when you feel you don’t get the amount of happiness that some others feel or experience .. and nobody wants to spend their day / days feeling upset .
Appreciate your comment ,
Glad you enjoyed this poem .
Yes , lemonade is bubbly ... just how I think happiness would be
