Subject(s): Birth; Happiness; Rebirth; Child Birth; Midwifery; Joy; Delight


Search the budding flower,
Pluck the tender leaf,
Steal a quiet hour
From your tears and grief.
Roam the dales and mountains,
Greet the radiant dawn,
Sip at Nature's fountains
and
Happiness is born.

Tear the fragrant grasses,
Find their scented source,
Kiss the lips of lasses,
Love brings no remorse.
Mask the face of sorrow,
Laugh dull care to scorn,
Shed your tears to-morrow,
and
Happiness is born.
