Good Spirit

I learned, not at school

what a pleasant life is

for me; that was step 1

 

I move on, because I know

the days can be boring

when I relax and enjoy

 

So, step 2

I seek happiness

I want to do something

 

I'm good at and

that benefits others

I want to live

 

as a good spirit

of flesh and blood

 

But without steps 3

that too can become boring

a routine, so

 

I'll keep being active

with discovering

something new and myself
