across paper</p><p>Or bang on and on the digital device's keys</p><p>It's often a petition or prayer</p><p>About the things in my life </p><p>That bring us to our knees </p><p>Sometimes it's simply a reflection</p><p>Upon an observation of a temporary thing</p><p>Sometimes I express my adoration </p><p>For what I find beautiful & it makes my heart sing</p><p>Whatever the case may be, my expression is intentional</p><p>You may find it boring or unconventional </p><p>You may feel uncomfortable in learning </p><p>"I don't care" about your judgment of this matter</p><p>And it's already okay (and always was) for me</p><p>What I aspire to be, is not controlled by</p><p>The gaze of passing strangers</p><p>I see no danger in the undertaking of my life</p><p>As it becomes fully formed, like butterfly wings</p><p>If perchance you encounter these words </p><p>I hope your mind is expanding with wisdom</p><p>Not my own, but the wisdom of the ages</p><p>From the encounters you've had at </p><p>All of life's various growth stages</p><p>I pray you cocoon yourself in what nourishes your growth</p><p>And when you emerge, you are better</p><p>And wiser, faster and stronger </p><p>I pray you are rewarded for nurturing your own rebirth</p><p>And the sky in which you fly</p><p>Is the vast expanse of the universe. </p><p><br

style="font-family: verdana;">💛💛<br />I don't search for Happiness<br />Happiness looks for me<br />He's attracted to my smile<br />And everything about me<br />His cousin's name is Joy<br />And she is always with me<br />Sometimes we all get together<br />And have a little party<br /><br />When Sadness wants to party-crash<br />And show her ass<br />Joy chases her away<br />And gently tells me<br />"Just lean on me,<br />I'll be your strength today.<br />And when you're ready,<br />We'll take a walk<br />And see if Happiness<br />Has the time to come back out<br />And play."<br />💕💕<br
