The art of happiness - a quadtille
Feeling the need of some happiness?
Maybe because you are sad,
Or people in your space are sad.
Do something nice for someone!
Smile with someone!
Listen to Soca music!
Dance as you listen !
Say a prayer for world peace.
'Happiness matters', speak it!
Yellow ixoras you stay open,
Once bloomed, through day
And through night;
Sleepless under Caribbean skies,
In your sweet umbrella forms,
Put you in a posey,
What would you represent?
Loveliness, continuity, happiness,
hopeful, joy, alluring
Ay yes,
I know, you would be enduring.
lips cherry red
lounges in sheer demur
she longs to stir about yet still
she smiles
smiling
she maintains her outward relaxed
sweet apperance for him
hair shining gold
his muse

It is the lash of a season of hurricanes, even though the punishment is not meted out evenly
The thunder and lightnings sound their loud reports. They just cannot be about their business quietly, for it is the nature of thunder to sound out, even sometimes outside the season of Atlantic hurricanes

This Moon Is Enough
After an early supper,
There was she, hung
Bright bold and round,
The night moon;
I thought she was a supermoon,
Oh but no,
She was just the Februrary moon,
Shinning for me,
To end my birthday,
The waitress said,
There is a new ice cream shop,
On the floor below,
I said to myself,
This moon is enough.
