Could I?

By LaughingSoul over at Kindspring.org

Could I ever have the happiness
of those who cannot walk
having a first step even if small?

Could I ever have the happiness
of those unsighted feeling
shadows for the first time?

Could I have the happiness
of music heard by one who
hear no sound?

Could I have the happiness
of the hungry parent
able to feed a child?

Could I have the happiness
of ones who after hard falls
finds no more holes?

Have we forgot
how to appreciate what we have,
the small things, forgotten are our priorities?
..Do we really need to gain a big loss
for the chance to touch happiness?
What
IS
Happiness?
