Happiness

Chaat on a rainy day
Pakoras too on the same day
With a hot cup of chai
If you haven’t done it yet, please do try

A low fat dish that tastes absolutely divine
A big chunk of chocolate, that’s absolutely mine
A scoop of ice-cream, a cup of pudding
A strong cup of coffee – ah, the joy it brings.

These are the things that give me absolute bliss
These are the things that give me happiness.

Waking up next to him each and every morning
Tight hugs and a little bit of kissing
Him teasing me, doing playful things
Keeping me on the ground, yet giving me wings.

Being treated like a princess
Being a girlfriend first and then the missus
Traveling the world, sharing our life
Happiness is -  being his wife!

These are the things that give me absolute bliss
These are the things that give me happiness.

Jumping on a plane to go to a new destination
Even buying the tickets, making a reservation.
Reaching there and exploring the place
Brings me happiness, joy on my face

The stay in a hotel, eating great meals
Traveling the world – awesome it feels
Planning, budgeting – it all comes alive
Love the fun activities, the long drives.

These are the things that give me absolute bliss
These are the things that give me happiness.

Writing a poem in twenty minutes
Writing everything – love it to bits
Then getting praised – it’s like icing on the cake
Writing about the world – writing my take.

Blogging is close, love it too
Have made a life here, friends too.
Every word here gives me immense joy
It is my first love, then comes the Boy!

These are the things that give me absolute bliss
These are the things that give me happiness.

The smell of wet sand
Freshly washed land
The touch of winter
Being close to nature.

The summer rush
The wind’s hush
Love the breeze on the first day of spring
Love the joy and peace it brings.

These are the things that give me absolute bliss
These are the things that give me happiness.


The sight of freshly cut grass
Roses in a line – that’s a different class
And the dancing tress
Oh, the humming bees!

When birds chirp at a distance
When plants grow on the fence
Eating a fruit straight from a plant
I love the nature’s beautiful chant.

These are the things that give me absolute bliss
These are the things that give me happiness.

Being close to nature,
Going on an adventure
Laughing with my friends
Rebuilding relationships, making amends.

Eating what my heart desires
Shopping – it never tires!
Love life and its smallest joys
Love the calm, love the noise.

These are the things that give me absolute bliss
These are the things that give me happiness.

    1. Thankyou, Vishal! I guess it is both - I haven't been writing too many poems and I think you are here after a very long time. But I am so glad you remember the style :)
