Fortune Is More Fortunate Within

April 14, 2020

Dear Subscriber:

Each week we examine a theme from a variety of points of view. The theme for this week is happiness.

I welcome comments on my poems at https://nicholasgordon.blogspot.com .

A philosophical number poem about the role of creation in happiness:

Fortune is more fortunate within.
One has been created for creation,
Rich in reason and imagination,
There being always something to begin
Yielding something more than what has been.

No one’s at the mercy of relation
If one can see the grace behind the scrim.
Nor need one look to fortune for salvation,
Embracing life with joy through thick and thin.
