Poézia: Can We Hold Onto Happiness?

Can We Hold Onto Happiness?

Can we hold onto happiness?
Can we have it, can we take it?
Does it fly or sail the sea
is it missing or located?

How much happiness must you gain
till you whistle unperturbed
only smiling at the world
leaving darkness undisturbed?

Each one has a happiness
single crop uniquely grown
find it: you’ll discover then
all you need is this alone

Text c Maja Kadlečíková : Can We Hold Onto Happiness?
