Literature - Poem Happy Endings

Summary of the Poem Happy Endings by Sylvia Spencer is an inspirational and motivational poem. In the first stanza the poet asks is there always a happy ending to every song or story? The poet then explains some people are happy, while others weep; and there are people who finish in glory. In the second stanza the poet reiterates there may not be a happy ending to every day. We may be sad or it might be raining and the sky might be grey due to which we might miss the sunshine of the clear sky. In the third stanza the poet wisely suggests to us that happy endings may not happen by chance, but we can make happy endings by the quality of our work and positive attitude. In the last stanza the poet advises us to be ourselves, however small we may be. We should always smile when things get out of tune. We should try to make a happy ending out of everything. When we do this life will be like a continuous honeymoon. Date : 15/05/20 Instructions:
