Happy Poetry
December 1, 1992
so I sit to write me a happy poem
with happy words to fill the screen
for a friend who says she wants to read
of happy things, not sad
I find I ��m not a happy person
but it ��s not a for all the time thing
the experience is the driving flame
and it ��s not like that inside
the world is a beautiful place to me
no matter what her people say
I can find me a place to lay my head
on a mountain top or in a field
and I can sit to watch the sun
feel it glow about my weary arms
and I know that there is always peace
for those who search
I do not say that all is well
the world permits this not
it has its faults like all envisioned
but why just be the faults
when the sun ��s so warm
and the scent of my field remakes me
I ��d find me a mountain on a sunny day
a place where I can feel the sky
so I ��d take me there and lie me down
so I can feel my peace, my sun
I live in the most perfect place I know
it ��s not in my land
it ��s in my head
for no matter the blemish of the world
as it fights its wars and kills its millions
inside there is a place to hide
where the world cannot hurt you
inside myself I draw on peace
escaped from world ��s conflicts
for in here ��
while I lie on my mountain above the woods
I can listen to the wind
I can tell myself I have my friends
and I have a place to rest my head
I have all that I need to survive
and the world is a beautiful place
I look to my friend and she seems so sad
and I ��m not good at helping
but to her this poem I do give
to say the world is not the enemy
no matter how it gets you down
you can get away to a place of peace
a world hard inside you
