The Tao of Happiness

My Tao knows that you cannot seek happiness
The opportunity
For happiness is everywhere
The seeking leads us to
Frustration
Suffering
Across the endless
Hot desert
Chasing a mirage
Wanting to possess
The last drink of water
Never learning
It may only be
Shared
An endless stream
Asking to quench
Any thirst
That is aware
Of how to smile
The inner smile
Of freedom
Of peace
Of love
