Magic Beans
As I wander in the wilderness
dark and dreary
stumbling into an empty space
with brightness rendering me blind
i sight a huge beanstalk
with just a single pod
hanging out for me
only four beans within
Confused, i wonder at its sight
and unsure what it implies
are they mere beans
or magical as that of Jack's
am i part of a modern fairytale
with wishes and curses entailed
I contemplate on its use
and then i was knocked out of my reverie
They were indeed magic beans
which is alive within us
the wonderful emotions
Almighty has provided us
HAPPINESS that is to be discovered
and enduring the SAD times
controlling our ANGER
and FEAR to be overcome
These beans decide the path
and is to be reined
for they are the magic beans
that will pave your way
until the reins are in your hands
You succeed and is blessed.
