The sentence, 'He was happy to see her', is NOT very descriptive. Descriptive language includes action verbs and engages the senses: seeing, hearing, touch, etc.

Examples of descriptive language that infers the idea of 'was happy' include::

John's heart raced when he saw Sally.

Jim shuddered at the sight of his first love.

The soldier wept joyfully to see his children after a year in Afghanistan.
