Happiness Overall
Toss a pebble onto still waters
does it skip the surfaces
does it fly
or does it plunk deep into the recesses of the deep
Patience is the virtue of a weary soul
longevity begets wisdom through trail and error
Youth by nature is impatient
Pray for rain and receive a flood
does your cup runneth over
Bury your dreams and smother hope
Hate is easy and justifies self doubt
True love takes time and is earned
Honest labor works for the betterment of all
Time is everything
Time is nothing
If life goes in cycles
can it recycle too
The flat stone slides across the water's surface
with three great leaps and skips
Enjoyment in simple things allows happiness overall.
