pleasing visuals dance through the head
produced by the most pleasant day dreams
contentment buoyed by what was unsaid
tranquillity riding silently on muted sunbeams
peace of mind is the final destination
the mantra reduced to a pleasing ummm
in a symbiotic relation with all of creation
pleasure derived from what we have become
fortunate and heartened to be a contented soul
success is as easy as doing the next right thing
body, mind and spirit needed to make one whole
a natural breath is the thing worth worshiping
happiness is freeing the imagination
love is the ultimate appreciation
be happy, take a deep breath, love, dream
make your next order four scoops of ice cream

“He who draws noble delights
from sentiments of poetry
is a true poet,
though he has never written
a line in all his life.”

Poem:
.
mother cultivated the beautiful iris
from Spanish iris translates to mean rainbow
exquisite colors which remain nameless
captured in the paintings of Vincent Van Gogh
pleasurable emotions tied to beauty
all creation is in perfect balance
except for the crazy who are a little fruity
and those who went down the hole with Alice
the birds and the bees, nature’s splendor
the males awesome colors to attract a mate
the sitting female camouflaged to fool the predator
except for the nerd who can’t get a date
we guess the exception is there to keep the balance
a unique place for the wanna be, the pretender
what God has provided in normals absence
in a mother’s heart everyone is a contender
