I Am Simply Happy Today

Why my heart joyous today, I don't know,
And leaps like millions of horses in one;
As the warm noon sun melts away the snow,
Glooms in me gone away; fears I have none,
Triumph brim-fills as though wars many won...
Strengths within like waters of seas amassed,
Wherefrom iniquities, like ice-burgs, smashed;
Spirit of God, like wild wide waters, whirl,
Within its vibrance, my ego gets crashed;
Making my sacred self lustrously hurl...

I see divine beauty all around me,
And aware of contrasts of calms and storms;
Youthful humility wrapped in grand glee,
Erases inaction in all its forms;
Detachment becomes my greatest of norms...
I hurt not any smallest of creatures,
I love them all now with their full features;
Honesty like blood in all my veins flow,
Goodwill and compassion as my treasures,
Contentment like life-breath in me does blow...
