There Was Something

There was something... wild,
beautiful, even brilliant.
They were going everywhere -
beaches and forests and mountain peaks,
with no money to
make them happy.

Infinite Calm

His form and hers, of perfect peace.
The infinite calm
seldom frenzied or despairing
a shadowless eternity boundless in love.
One might doubt
the presence of asserted tranquility.
Do you believe such people are happy?
I'd give a great deal to know.

Existence of Happiness

It is strange
how the existence of happiness
completes your heart
even when body is gone.
Men seldom cherish
the solace of declining years.

Solitary Rambling

I took such a taste
for this solitary rambling
that I did not fear
breaking forth alone.
My confidence proved plenty
and sheltered by my cautious counsel
I went wandering
in search of myself.
