So Lucky Are Those Happy With What They Have Got Poem by Francis Duggan

Since others you never do seem to impress
You do feel bitter for your lack of success
Accept who you are since in life that's your lot
So lucky are those happy with what they have got
Who only to live a happy existence ever to do aspire
In them there is so much to like and admire
On what success is many would disagree
To be happy in your life seems success to me
We all look at things one might say differently
But then if we all thought in the same way how boring we would be
With two healthy children and a beautiful and devoted wife
What more can anybody ask out of life
Your idea of success quite different to mine
And our values system different though that suits me fine.
