The Universal Point

The universal point of life Is not what we can buy The majesty of innocence Is not a crowning lie The urgency of happiness Reflects a hungry heart But joy is more than one caress Can save a shaky start To care for riches, casually Commands a tighter grip But what you do to find yourself Is worthy of a ship.
