Pursuits

Live wise and well
For goodness tells
A happy spell


Love all you can
With lovely hands
In sanguine scan


Laugh with fond zest
In your life quest
In fragrant jest


Lines of clear rhymes
Now ease the times
In troubled chimes


Look to the soul
To know a whole
Despite odd poles


Last can be first
If you but burst
To soothe that thirst


Lift up and see
The gaze that frees
So you can be
