the content contained
creatively born from
wild dancing images,
smiling light, and simple ecstasy
something so small
holds the ability
to possess me into
a frenzy of song
a shoulder for tears
a hug for no reason
a random dance
a sprinkler, crazy people
life can complete
if treated right
make it happy and simple
viola! success through eternity
a sweet kiss
a light touch
a taste of laughter
a day of jokes and games
anything small, simple, random
anything for no reason
true happiness comes to you
through the smallest most unexpected things
leaving a print on your heart...

In line with the contest, you were able to define your perspective of being happy. I was able to see the glimpse of what you wanted to say. I totally agree that you can tell more than what you wanted.
I suggest that this piece could have been better if the fourth stanza will be replaced. I just think that it doesn't fit the whole piece. Overall, the poem manages to give a heartprint to its readers.
I wish you all the best in the contest and thanks for sharing. Keep writing.
