You find what you look for mostly;
You can feed your happiness full and fat
You can make your miseres ghostly,
Or you can forget every JOY you own
By coveting something beyond your zone.

Where the guttering mud is drifted,
Or we can look to the worldwide sky
Where the Artists scenes shifted
Puddles are Oceans in miniatures
Or merely puddes the choice is yours
WE can strip our niggardly souls so bare
That we haggle penny between us;
Or we can be rich in common share
Of the Pleades and Venus.
You can lift your soul to its outerrnost look,
Or YOU can keep it packed in pocketbook

Or we can find, in baby's smiles,
The pulse of living pleasure
