We look for joy as if it were a place,10Please respect copyright.PENANAiEgx3Cfrt4
some distant island where the sun forgets how to set.10Please respect copyright.PENANAsVmdllSJv4
But happiness was never a final resting space,10Please respect copyright.PENANAFiS4iB0sZT
never a room exempt from shadows or the sudden, heavy rains.
It is just the daily turning of the soil.10Please respect copyright.PENANAE1McAb4yv4
The plain, unglamorous choices we make,10Please respect copyright.PENANAeL7HACMGTM
the gentle hands that steady themselves through the toil,10Please respect copyright.PENANAOFJPGDwuTI
and the patient, tired feet10Please respect copyright.PENANAQ6BwbKwdwP
that learn to wander gracefully through the gray.
When the sunshine finally pours and everything is bright,10Please respect copyright.PENANAB5w07Pl7Uq
hold it with an open palm.10Please respect copyright.PENANAECeMu4mhpz
Do not try to bind the passing warmth or overfill the sight.
And when the sudden storms begin to break,10Please respect copyright.PENANA8NzqVLbLyg
and winds of sorrow shake the fragile door,10Please respect copyright.PENANAVNR6zsjKHs
remember what your own two hands can make out of the wreckage.10Please respect copyright.PENANAawBbaZMilT
You are the anchor,10Please respect copyright.PENANAMU659Sekgp
holding deeper than the floor.
Navigate the weather as it comes and goes.10Please respect copyright.PENANAvY3AX2Wd2I
Stand there with a grounded heart that refuses to depart,10Please respect copyright.PENANALvDrx595WI
because happiness is not a wind that never blows—10Please respect copyright.PENANA9qeizaHb6D
it is the steady compass10Please respect copyright.PENANAtLn5QYwVvL
resting in your heart.
We draw maps upon maps,10Please respect copyright.PENANAFjYKlM8WaL
Searching for hidden passages to peace, while the rule asks very little:10Please respect copyright.PENANAMuUIDte5sM
Simple things know the way home.10Please respect copyright.PENANA3PzFSR6ytj
