Andrea Dietrich Poet Rhyme

Notes About The Poem

for Mohan Chutani's Let's Minichu On Pleasure Poetry Contest

Happiness

Happiness I wish for.
May the wonderful things I revel in arrive
at my door.

I long to be
pleasure-filled and fully alive
and free.

I thirst!
May I joy-strive
burst.

Happiness I wish for.
Pleasure-filled and fully alive -
burst!
