BEING HAPPY…

Woke up with a broken jaw and later broke my fist,

Went to my doc, where he told, I developed an incurable cyst

Going to work, fell in the mud and was all dirt clad,

Smile was which I never lost and nothing made me sad

Lost my job and landlord threw me out of the house,

Was searching my lost key in the dump, aah! , got bitten by a mouse

Bruised finger, tattered clothes but still a smiling me,

Same was I, years back when robbed off my entire college fee.

Was urgent but still I missed the last train,

Got an x-ray of my head and found, alas “I never had a brain!”

People laughed and made fun of me in the broad day light  ,

I smiled the incident off when I knew I had an option to fight.

Neither a coward, nor a nerd, nor a geek was I,

But I chose to walk along, smiling, like a steady passer-by,

Achieved everything in my quest and now so happy do I lay,

I won the game of life because “BEING HAPPY” was my quote of day.
