Son'Ny! This Cradlesong Is Not So Sweet Comments

Wisdom shines through your thoughtfully chosen words about the illusion that happiness is something you can 'get' if you 'consume' enough, if you look far enough, if you try hard enough. As Sandra says - happiness and sorrow are the two sides of the same thing - life. They go hand in hand - like bride and groom. Another fine poem from a thoughtful, compassionate soul. love, Allie xxxx

'Happiness forever' is not possible in this world and sadness also comes to pass..Like Tagore's butterfly, we live in the moments we are given and have time enough.But I believe it does get better farther on..Your last lines are especially compelling. You are a poet worthy of the name. You must be happy about that! Take care.. Always your friend, Sandra
