True Happiness & Love Poem by Tom Zart

Our desires never totally depend
On our social standing in life.
Instead good health, with just pursuits
And the love of a child, husband or wife.

True happiness is a wonderful gift
A joy of life, from God to man.
Though most fear it can’t last
We pray to have it, as long as we can.

Whatever the blessings life may bring
We gladly clutch despite our desires.
Happiness grows like fruit on the vine
Unwelcome to be plucked by liars.

We’re never as happy or unhappy
As we suppose ourselves to be.
Sadly, some live half a lifetime
Before the light of wisdom we see.

Happiness helps prolong our days
Though most human joys are swift of wing.
Heaven allots how much we’ll have
As of love and deliverance we sing.

As Christians must surrender and pray
To fulfill our Godly purpose and need.
To serve the Lord with heart, mind and soul
Helps us transform and cultivate His seed.
