Happy Birthday, A.A. Milne

On this winter version of a blustery day here on the East Coast, I wish you Happiness, courtesy of A.A. Milne:

Happiness

John had
Great Big
Waterproof
Boots on;
John had a
Great Big
Waterproof
Hat;
John had a
Great Big
Waterproof
Mackintosh–
And that
(Said John)
Is
That.

(From When We Were Very Young, by A.A. Milne, published 1924)
