Happily Ever After
They lived "happily ever after,"
Is there really such a thing?
Is it only found in fairy tales?
Or tunes American idols sing?
Do dreams ever see see fulfillment?
Can one find that pot of gold?
Will we find the youthful fountain,
Before we grow so very old?
Can we find that four leaf clover?
Midst the crab grass everywhere,
Do we pause in our complaining,
To ever offer up a prayer?
Is there someone special for us?
A soul mate meant to share our life?
Have we stopped to really search,
For one who'll ease this world of strife?
Do we put our best foot forward?
Make the best of each new day?
I think it takes a bit of effort,
For "happily ever after" to come our way!
