Incessant moments of happiness
Tread the boards of our lifetimes.
They appear,
Reappear.
Breaking through grey clouds
With sunshine.
Incessant moments of happiness
Make the world’s verses
Shift,
Fit.
Rearranging the words
With true rhyme.
Incessant moments of happiness
Are like lullabies
Are to cherubim
Come bedtime.
Incessant moments of happiness
Feel like the scent
Of one
And a thousand pine forests.
Fresh,
Soothing.
Like the pulp
Of the sweetest melon.
