The Joy of Your Life

Happiness is a life-caring feature A feeling appealing and good Because of the kindness we show to each creature We know that we live as we should But every right function is done over time For the sake of the good that we do And every tall mountain is such a good climb For the sake of the summit in you The service we give to the cause of creation Is great for the virtue inside And how we must live for the pause of elation Reflects on our purpose and pride But as the by-product of love and success And not the fulfillment of such Happiness lives by the wrongs we address And not as our purpose so much The purpose of life is to live by our caring With kindness, compassion, and thought For joy is fulfillment and subject to daring To be what our passion is not.
