BANNED:

Sadness, unhappiness & woefulness, all banned,

In Book of Kells, Bible, Veda, Torah & holy Quran,

Where does it tell us, that we must only look down?

Searching all that´s dim, dark & only underground.

 

To be within His likeness, the Almighty´s sacred will,

Shouldn’t we then be looking, towards that distant hill?

Shouldn´t we then be searching, the eagle in blue skies?

And maybe see only goodness, within our brother´s eyes.

 

Warm laughter in the heart & sweet smiles upon the lips,

Of every little joy, we should savour & not merely tiny sips,

When we´ve mastered happiness, a sign of man´s arrival,

That is when the human race, is assured of its survival.

 

Be it barred & prohibited, all that´s sad, bad & gloomy,

Leaving space within each soul, light, bright & roomy,

Everything that´s not happy, truly should be banned,

As sadness, by our Lord, was never-ever planned.
