For the Virtuous

I’ve found happiness and wholeness “but”
That just means I’ve had many lessons

“blessed” for sure and my blessings aren’t luck
“poetry” a little something I learnt from Pac
“perfect” yes because I'm healthy and evolved
“skinny” so what? ***** don’t get involved
“deprived” I’ll always give and do it kindly
“money” needed but would never define me
“The heart” is healed with no trace of debris
“society” needs to back off so I can live free
“meditation” easily the best form of reception
“tradition” love it but I've found my own connection
“God” within me – I always put Him first
“gifts” remember perfume is the worst
“flowers” just roses to snuffle at its petals
“love” of course but never prematurely settle

“impressed” I hope you are because now you know I rhyme
“thanks” for reading and please come back next time
