She had always been on the outside looking in, craving love and happiness.
A lone little girl, sitting on a hill,
Desperately searching for a place called Happy, she knew it was real.
She will know it when she finds it, it is a sunny place,
The warmth she will find there will dry the tears from her face.
Her sad eyes strain for just one little peek,
Her heart pines, as faithfully she seeks.
She has heard that all that dwell there wears a sunny grin,
She hopes the townfolk will be kind and welcome her in.
It is so lonely upon this hill and so cold too,
She sits and trembles and watches her body turn blue.
She refuses to give up her quest and ignores her pain,
She will have nothing to lose and happiness to gain.
The poor little soul begins to pray,
She asks for a guardian Angel to please come and show her the way.
STRIKINGLY BEAUTIFUL POEM FILLED WITH PAIN,TRUTH,AND HOPE,BECAUSE PRAYER,IN MY OPINION,ALWAYS RESULTS IN HOPE.
THANKS FOR SHARING,AND CONTINUED SUCCESS.

A Place Called Happy, you've invoke a lot in the lines... the reader is consumed by the struggles by which the little girl is going through... Thanks for sharing...
The little girl deserves more than happiness in my book...even more than ecstasy if that were possible. A heart that hungers shall be fulfilled.
Love,
Amor
Your poem makes me sad. I believe that happiness is what we make of life - lemons or lemonade. Yet, it is difficult for some to find happiness when life around them is full of pain. I hope your 'little girl' finds happiness, soon.
God bless you. Kathy

Sc I said it before and I repeat it now, happiness is there for all of us, we are just blind to it, open your eyes wider and spread that smile, so it can welcome you. You are special.
Awwwww, the poor sweet, precious little girl. In search of something that is just out of reach, reminds me of the little match stick girl. Powerful piece, filled with emotion....
No Fool such as I am....I have climb mountains...swam rivers...and fighted many demons........but this one is killing me slowly that I am fighting right now.....cold are me fingers......and the grip I need to strangle just not powerful enough!!
Happy does not like to be by my side...always avoiding that very last step to happiness!!
