Ode To Happiness
Ode to Happiness
Happiness is elusive
It perches on the shoulder for a while
Flying off in an instant if not nourished
O, Happiness, the search for you began
With first breath
The struggle to find you is unending
And unquenchable
How sad that you dwell inside us
All the while
And no one looks for you there.
