The Pursuit of Happiness

The Pursuit of Happiness

Though it should appear my conscience is clear
Still someone will sneer and possibly jeer
I seek not to care with deference to peers
for those who would fare despite all their fears
Create a nice sphere begin a new year
A lessening of tears a world full of cheers
