Let joy shall crash upon you like the waves from the

sea, heavy and full of unexpectedness.

 

Let love drift to you like the soft smell of hyacinth

from the gardens below your window.

 

Deny not the furtive scrapings of passion always

clawing and biting their way into your life.

 

Allow life to be lived as life, not as scripted verse, not like this.
