POEMS FOR
HAPPINESS

Silence
If you are silent long enough
Your body whispers
You are enough
Aldrin V. Gomes


Every Second
Every second of every minute
somewhere in this world
an angel breaks up
with their satan
and is adrift wondering
for a considerable time
until they realize
they have glorious wings
and can fly.
Aldrin V. Gomes
Time to Laugh
Skateboard
Carrots
I had a cat who loved to chase people on a skateboard.
He'd chase folks on the street with glee,
And the joy in his eyes was easy to see.
But alas, his antics were too much,
People were frightened by his rush,
I had to intervene,
To stop him from this type of play,
And take his cherished skateboard away.
I had a friend with a taste for ribs,
A meat lover through and through.
He'd chow down on a rack or two,
And leave his plate clean, as good foodies do.
While he was dining at a fast-food spot,
A kid eating a carrot came up
And said, "I thought only dogs eat bones."
My friend replied, "My dog eats carrots."
