My quest

Leads me to the inner

Sanctum of your

Being, the epicentre

Of great joy

 

Laughter…

At last, the golden 

Treasure unveiled  

 

Deep inside

The heart of Virtue…

Love blossoms

Like the first flower

Of spring

 

Happiness

Is the free spirit

That sails… 

Gently along the secret

Rivers of time

 

Behold

The dome of pleasure…

Rising from

The lively veins   

Of the soul

 

Sing

To me, lyrebird,

The beautiful

Songs of the waxing

Moon of Oz

 

Hold me

In your gentle arms

Oh Sweet Violet…

The spring flower

Of my dreams

 

Ah, the cool

Image of the spring flower…

Dancing in the wind

How intense you are, Lawrence.

A sensitive man with poetry in his soul enough to express enchantment with the beauty of women.
