Happiness

Happiness is the whirl of lyrical runes, voicing of raging monstrous stories in loons. Happiness is the rough silence of the heart, that cries in loneliness of love torn apart Happiness is a prodigal daughter that, swims in the rainbow of her abductor's cart Happiness is like sleeping in milk sea foam, intoxicating deep embrace in risk loam. Happiness is a fear tickle that brings cheers, a belly full banked in the depths of our ears. Happiness burns pure like the sax of cigars, a remembrance for how we soar in the stars. Happiness is the screeching of our lost soul, a ride that fondles a tender name in whole. Happiness is harmony clocks of sour wines, serenaded in Sunset play, Red Tide Whines. Happiness is the smile of a sealed deadline, that strokes our creative sane, ego hairline. Happiness screams, a colliding in your name, a chasing of moon and stars, a racing game.

Dear Tonye, What a deep dive into the multifaceted nature of happiness, portraying it as both elusive and profound. I loved your contrasting imagery, which beautifully captures the complexities of human emotions, from the lyrical whirl of joy to the rough silence of heartbreak. Tonye, I liked that happiness exists in the delicate balance of life's contrasts and that even in moments of darkness, there can be glimpses of light. - Blessings, my Friend!

True dear friend. Happiness is a lot of things. And even in our sadness there happiness, because there's one thing money can't buy. Life.
