Recipe for a Happy Day

A heart full of thankfulness.

A thimble of care.

A soul of simple hopefulness.

An early morning prayer.

A smile to greet the morning with.

A kind word as a key

To open the door and greet the day,

Whatever it brings to thee.

A patient trust in providence

To sweeten all the way.

All these combined with thoughtfulness

Will make a happy day.
