The Treasure Map
The Treasure Map
Fun was something foreign,
a most elusive thing...
It seems that it was beyond my grasp
and but a fairy's ring...
I heard the term but knew it not,
thus, envy was my friend...
until the day that Truth revealed
what Life could but portend...
I did not know what it could be,
not who or where or what...
or why it was beyond my scope
of comprehension, but...
Then, one day, a miracle
fell unbidden, to my lap...
a nugget of the finest gold...
a hidden treasure map.
Well, not a map, as such, appeared
but something just as fine...
a golden nugget of hidden truth
that fun would thus consign...
It was not a who or what, or
where this map did lead...
The concept that was given
was but an attitude, a seed!
And with it came the knowledge
that would redesign my world
and held the key to happiness
within it's fingers curled.
Now I cannot explain this, but
today, it's clear to me...
that fun happens when I live in
a state of mind capri...
Anything I do in Life...
if done with Gratitude...
can be quite, yet, enjoyable,
in celestial latitude.
Fun is what I make of it
At any given place or time…
If I have the attitude of
A grateful state of mind.
It's what transpires between my ears
that holds the key to fun...
And I can transform anything
to a dance in midnight sun.
And I would share this map with you
that treasure you would find...
Yes, gratitude is where it's at,
this grateful state of mind.
