In the shemozzle of life, in its twists and turns,
In the cloudy cloisters and sunny chambers
In its pickled flavors alternating with bland tales,
Lies my emancipation, I don’t look anywhere else.
In the wholehearted laughter or a broken smile,
In the tears of joy or a broken-hearted pain,
In wintry gales, turbulent showers, and spring flowers,
Lies my emancipation, I don’t look anywhere else.
In the innocence of the young, wisdom of the aged,
In the balancing of emotions savoring each one to the fullest,
In the myriad facets of love evolving at every stage,
Lies my emancipation, I don’t look anywhere else.
In a workaday world bestowed with occasional exceptions,
In hectic hours and practicing a proclivity,
In the charm 9f nature and delicacy of leisure,
Lies my inspiration, I don’t ot look anywhere else.
In knowing the self, discovering the unknown within,
In the adjustment to reality forever in flux,
In the Xanadu of life, in the elixir of living,
Lies my emancipation, I don’t look anywhere else.
