Make belief you can find joys in the simple things of life which determine your happiness and richness.

Make belief 

That you hold

The secret

Of happiness

- – -

Your bliss

Isn’t found

In money

But the simple things

Of life

- – -

You have

No health problems

To speak of

You laugh a lot

And wonder

Why others

Are so troubled

By seeking silver

And gold 

- – -

You view yourself 

As a paragon of goodness

Kindness oozes

From your being

- – -

You’re a cheerleader

That finds time

To laugh

As you dance

In this topsy-turvy world 

- – -

You cry when you’re sad 

About misfortunes

And you’ll be

Always there

To lend a helping hand

- – -

You’re a mountain

Of compassion

And unselfish love

- – -

You display

A great depth

Of wisdom

In counseling

The less fortunate

- – -

You have

An unshakable spirit

Sprinkled with

A daunting courage

- – -

You like a challenge

Swimming in the deepest sea

With anyone who calls 

Your name

- – -

You’re rich

Beyond measure

Your cup 

Runs over

With an immensity

    You feel the bounty of love inside your heart. And, that love serves as your motivation to grow.

    Instead of make believe these should be goals everyone should strive for. Very nice written.

    cute one, I do have inhibitions about make belief, if you can go for the real one then aspire for it.
