A Contented Man

Bring me a contented man
Who finds sunshine in the rain,
When misery is a feeling
He aims not to meet again,
The four winds blow him pleasure
He hoards happiness (that`s his style) ,
That rubs off on everyone
Who stands in his company for a while,

Bring me a happy man
He cheers all who pass him by,
Always there to help his friends
And will never question why,
A man they can depend on
To soothe every worry in their life
That man who would deserve
An extremely caring wife.

    Wow! You've said it all. I long for contentment and happiness. When normalcy reigns supreme I usually manage to reach it but the beast always returns. He's as inevitable as the tide.

    Great sentiments - so few people, women included, are either contented or happy. Very well written.
