Don't immerse your heart in sadness
Solitary star,
This world is taking off, half-mad,
Without a handlebar
And you and I, two tiny peas,
Amidst a no man's land
Hummingbirds of happiness
Fluttered out of hand
Walking down a rainbow's edge,
Too silent to be heard,
Sent to us by gracious angels,
greatly needed word
Smothered by feeling
Spent for no one's sake
Happiness, discredited, is
Weeping at the stake
Words and leaves are falling jast to
Color soggy ground
Happiness, so hesitant is
Begging for a crown,
Wanting not to trouble [bad word] and goes in haste
Outwardly — so honorable,
Inwardly — abased
Don't immerse your heart in sadness
Solitary star,
This world is taking off, half-mad,
Without a handlebar
And you and I, two tiny peas,
Amidst a no man's land
Hummingbirds of happiness
Fluttered out of hand
