Your Collective Victory Race Run and Done

Life on the fringe of bliss, mere existence
Life in bloom, your preferred portion
Meant to reward persistence and perseverance
To set proportionate priorities in motion 

Where chaff and excess baggage you excise
To accommodate love, affection and care
To the detriment of moribund malaise whose prize
You can no longer dare and bear

In the context of sparse room
To condone
As malaise alongside its doom and gloom
Abandon

The path to order and harmony
Which caters for the greater good
In symphony
With a conducive mood understood

To accommodate felt needs
Of creatures great and small
Whose desire includes cutting out weeds
Precipitating their free fall at the mall

Where life ditches existence to metamorphose
Into a coherent whole that blends happiness, vision and empathy
Alongside the redemptive rose
Whose telepathy

Blesses and harnesses the synergy
That taps the best of every member in your social circle
Merging each portion and contribution of the energy
From each member to unite collective goals into a marvelous miracle

In which happiness caters for everybody
Neglects no one
Everybody loves and cares for somebody
As your collective victory race is run and done.
