Where Are The Poems Of Joy?

WHERE ARE THE POEMS OF JOY?

Where are the poems of joy?
The poems of gratitude
For all the blessings of my life?
For all the people who have made my life happy?
Where all the poems
Which tell even a small part of the true story
Of all the perceptions of beauty
And the moments of love?

I have not had the mind and soul
To write them in a true way
And I am an older and sadder man on the page
Than I have been in this real life
Of so much pleasure and meaning in the world.

The painter Picabia said our heads are round so that our thoughts can change direction. In this totally open poem you have sine just that with a mellow wisdom and sincerity. It's never too late to express a double truth like this: I was wrong in the past, but here's the truth etc. A wonderful poem. was wring in the past
