following your heart;
the cave of three bridges;
the elves arriving to help.

whittling;
children’s building blocks.

building the bonfire high as the house;

beauty as truth;
shapeshifting into a fox;
reaping what you’ve sown.

gathering for the rite;
the tower crashing into the sea;
still blooming.

the way home;
nuzzling;
shadow of a bird.

close to the edge;
tossing the crescent moon into the sky;
a loud shout of laughter.
Happiness 10-27
going in two directions;
sleeping in the honeycomb;
rooted in desire.

resting in between;
the vines around the thatch-eaves;
finding shelter from hailstones.

geese at sunset;
hidden under wet leaves;
heavy fumes of crushed grapes.

the last wave;
summoning all your courage;
the other side of the shield.

beads in sunshine;
the rain talking to you;
wild cockatoos gathering in eucalyptus trees.

boarding the train;
singing as we march;
wild roses still blooming.

locking the barn door afterward;
a feather falling over Mount Shasta;
far too many to count.
Happiness 10-20
napping between the roots;
pulling on velvet opera gloves;
seven ravens coming toward you.

bringing plenty of grapes;
a cave of amethyst;
falling into the rapids and being saved.
Happiness 10-18
taking the lead;
rubbing the odd lamp you found;
a conversation with a horse.
Happiness 10-17
making the turn;
scampering to safety;
strumming the lute in the castle.
Happiness 10-16
following the path;
finding the original;
going over the waterfall in a barrel.
Happiness 10-15
finding it at Roslyn Chapel;
the black cat on a black morning;
cutting through the brambles.
Happiness 10-14
bouncing on fingertips;
the goatherd calling;
a stunning realization.
