I’m Happy When….

I am happy when…
It’s your first morning call,
And the sun has risen tall.

I am happy when…
You share with me the stories,
Of those unwritten glories.

I am happy when…
I see that tinkle in your eyes,
Which still gives me butterflies.

I am happy when…
You see a plane crossing a rainbow,
And I see your face with childlike glow.

I am happy when…
You nonstop do the talk,
While holding hands we walk.

I am happy when…
You tell me your dream,
Over a scoop of ice cream.

I am happy when…
It’s our customary movie night,
You feeding me popcorn holding me tight.

I am happy when…
I cough a little letting out a sneeze,
And you hug me against the cold breeze.

I am happy when…
Your solution to all problems is one,
In hands hiding chocolates a ton.

I am happy when…
You fly high so free,
Knowing that you will come back to me.

I am happy when…
You place a forehead kiss,
After a day of pure bliss.

I am happy when…
You’re there for me and I’m there for you,
Whenever the world feels sad and blue.

  1. It’s beautiful, Nibha.
    I’m happy when M comes running to me.
    I’m happy when my family is well.
    I’m happy when I’m able to do what I committed to do.
    And I’m also happy when I get to read poems such as this one 🙂

  2. I loved the poem and can relate so much to it,,, I am a fauji wife, and have these long spells where the husband isnt around. These lines speak my mind, at such times!!!!
