Paradoxical

Who does not desire a good life? Watch purpose and passion work fire. Who cares if you come, stay or go? Watch zest and courage shape fond flow. Who dares to face life's harsh music? Surpass things comic or tragic. Who greets each transient moment's spell? Mindful beyond heaven or hell. Who wants to know the truth that cuts? Only the crazy fools and the nut. Who loves to love for true love's sake? The small man just wants a big break. Who wins the game and forfeits pride? Fleeting is fame for brief joy ride. Who comes to seek the sick and lost? The greedy world sums up each cost. Who can find comfort in mere things? Dazzle puzzles as vain stuff flings. Leon Enriquez 24 April 2016 Singapore
