The Happiness I Seek

The joy of life--this God asks me to sense.

I've always cursed my life for being bleak.

I've denied world of my soul's effulgence.

***

I pass by rose and lilac's sweetest scents.

I delve in tasks and miss all that's unique.

The joy of life--this God asks me to sense.

***

I don't want to live life at my expense.

I want to know the happiness I seek.

I've denied world of my soul's effulgence.

***

Cosmos of play and beauty is immense.

My heart regrets failure to at stars peek.

The joy of life--this God asks me to sense.

***

Trapped in my ways, I long for innocence,

to be child willing to needs bespeak.

I've denied world of my soul's effulgence.

***

May I release contractions and defense.

May I spread fairy dust, prance with mystique.

The joy of life--this God asks me to sense.

I've denied world of my soul's effulgence.
