Happiness! Lived

 
Tinker’s folly!?
(Santa Claus!? Really!?)
 
 
I wonder true:
 
Can itinerant vacant tinker’s folly ’ere dare amount to worthwhile much?
Innocent fantasy dreams or faux obfuscated schemes determine value such?
 
Yet, wander I, askew:
 
Inhale sweet breath of Tennessee hills in valley fog fine morn
Savor summit-high to Pacific-blue sunset-golden crown forlorn
 
And, dare challenge life for all I knew:
 
Tender-touch of Innocence upon grizzled cheek the child’s eyelash oh! butterfly-kiss
Spin yarns, tell tales combined truth-fabricated imagined time and space, don’t miss
 
Go to that “secret” place of unicorns, rainbows and flutter-by colorful hues
Or succumb to mundane chase of silver-gold endeavor void; refuse to choose
 
Be rather in drafty deer stand ten degree dawn hinted orange orb to greet
Savor event-adventure absent wild vacant wraithlike buck to chance-meet
 
Contemplate Einstein theory “relative” or “fractal geometry” of Mandelbrot
Speculate purported ethnic blood-lineage of German-Irish, or maybe even Scot
 
Love’s vibrant subdued cacophonous syncopated harmony desired emotion
Word-pledged bond come whatever may circum-scurrilous deepest devotion
 
Simply, best “Happy”-image to view:
 
Anachronistic trek through 50’s-space upon the two-lane Natchez Trace
Or, just always, me seven jewels heart-held shining sacred perfect face
 
In the “all” of that, and more, a personal clue:
 
’Tis better give than to receive” might cause a holy sacred pause
’Tis humble-simple: Just confess-practice dear ole “Santa Claus”!
 
A most easy destination! Believe and say:
Today! And, every Bless-ed gifted day!
 
Amen!
