In this life we can be happy
But being happy can be confusing
As it doesn’t mean you have it all,
Being happy is that you are grateful,
Grateful for what you have,
For what you have in your life.

A lot of folk would like to be 'happy' like Mr Dodd - naughty, not paying taxes. Of course, he would sing 'Happiness'. Doh!
He was a very funny comedian, I saw one of his shows back in the day.

Interesting write, I am grateful but not always happy, enjoyed the read
Thank you Tobani, gratefulness is always a pleasure.

You are very welcome
Your poem captures a simple but profound truth—that happiness isn’t about having everything, but about appreciating what you already have. Very nicely written!!!!
Thank you for your kind, understanding words Salvia.
