The Bowl of Happiness




One night I had a dream,
I saw a beggar child,
He walked & collected tears,
Of other persons in his bowl.
He came to me
“Please cry”, he said,
With his bowl near my eyes.
“Why do you collect tears”, I asked,
“Actually I collect happiness”, he said.
“How”, I asked,
He replied, “People cry & their sadness lessens down”,
“I want to make this whole world happy”, he continued.
“And how do you get happiness out of this”, I asked.
“If the whole world is happy, why I will be sad”, he said.
His bowl was full,
And my dream was complete.
