Song
by
morgan michaels

Now we will be happy, happy, happy,
and lordy, lordy,
happy and happier still,
happy running down the happy hill

like two happy rills or more
hoarding the strands of their song
into a happy oratorio
falling down, down, down, headlong

running to calm cadenzas of pooled skill
run, run, run, run, run!
If happiness, mind you were the moon,
I would grab both its horns and hang on.

Now we will be happy, happy, happy,
and happily, happily we'll
be happy and happier still
happy running over the happy hill.

Repetition does not always accentuate the power of the thought. It can detract. It did for me here. Writing poetry is such a rewarding thing to do that it is to easy to let this happen.
