This haibun about emotions, Happy?, lays out the list emotions and allows that the odds of happiness are 3 to 1 against. Seems maybe, as revealed in the haiku portion of the poem, that happiness is more subtle than anger, disgust, and fear. We need to embrace it and promote it.

I enjoyed the sentiment of this poem: happiness often is soft and gentle, not always raucous and loud. I'm a sucker for assonance, so love your s's and n's. (Not too sure of the word "innards," but it may be just right, too.) The poem is provocative, prompting reevaluation. Great job!

This Haibun speaks about emotion of happiness, how it acts and affects a person and how it could be expressed in words as it is somewhat our heart's innards with subtle serenade within heart; well said, well done. DR ALCREATOR

a very positive and uplifting poem. interesting style I intend to copy.
your poem is in a word: Happy. we need to check on who's making lists. my list is a lot different.
