Happiness Is Your Real Nature! Poem by Chuy Amante

Happiness is your true nature!

Where is it now,
where did it go?
Can't see it now,
buried deeply under snow?

Your true nature,
your self is Happiness!
Tis in you well buried
if you feel not the bliss.

You have indeed covered it
with many thick layers,
You've been played many times
and you've also been the player.

Clean your thoughts,
order all them well,
you will then see
that dependence really smells.

Happiness comes not
from things outside,
that true recollection
should make you run and hide

Drop the desire
for all things outside,
Remember now,
true bliss
only resides inside!

Happiness doesn't arrive,
Happiness it abides!

Be true, be real,
be what you are,
time to re-open,
and drop all old scars

Happy that you've been experiencing
The highs and the lows
all the ecstatic dancing
movin like Go-Gos!

Another chance to FEEL some more!
Each day a fresh, brand-new door!

Feel to the hilt, be HAPPY
you as a soul can,
for that is the destiny
of God's-created hu-man
