The Happiness Formula Poem by Joe Hughes

They tell me you could take some hash
Or some new modern drug I guess,
But all those convoluted chemicals
Will never lead to happiness.

The formula is very simple
It begins with no one else but you.
So listen up, now pay attention
As you find 'Something To Do'.

So next in line, my number two
Must fit you like a glove.
For this part of the happiness formula
Is having 'Someone To Love'.

We're almost there, not far to go
When happiness will come to you.
The third part of the formula
Is having 'Something To Look Forward To'.

No need for vast possessions,
For wealth or great success.
Just follow this short formula
For lasting happiness!
