Fishing for Happiness


His life has been,

so far,

a melody of tears...


The music of his life

has faded away ino

the pits of misery.

With every turn

and breath,

he is bruised and cut.

A pin-sized spark

swallows him as

a cloud cussions

his novelty prize.


The melody of his pearls

now haunts every

screening of his life.

He longs for the rubies

of his mines to pour out;
yet

He still casts a line

out to that sea where

no fish ever swims...

The notes of the music

of his life are too low.


His life has been,

so far,

a melody of trepidation.
