Everybody laughs

Everybody laughs,
but those unlucky few.

yes, everybody laughs,
including me and you.

and everybody cries,
including me and you.

yes, everybody cries,
but those very unlucky few.

I’d rather be happy
than sad,

that does not make me
bad.

And I’m sure
you’d rather be too,

happy not sad,
then you would be glad,

and I’d be happy 
to make you glad,

it’s not so hard to do,

all I need to do,
is write this poem for you,

Right?

Wow, it’s done,
are you happy?
