Transmundane
I laugh, and dance throughout the atmosphere,
A spirit borne by light, and wind, and cloud!
I sing a song that men shall never hear,
performing for the universe, uncowed!
No form is fit to house the transmundane,
my essence is pure joy of life itself.
A fickle sprite, I'm innocently vain,
I fear no poverty, or covet wealth!
This game, called love, that earth-bound mortals play
seems such a waste of time and energy!
Their lives so short, then ending in decay,
a stunning contrast to my reverie!
This passing thought, of mankind’s misery,
dismissed without intentional disdain,
as, like the wind, I have no history
to give me pause, or memories of pain!

Dear Reggie! I found this as I explored the hashtag happiness... and there you & I are at the top. I’m so delightfully effected by your piece’s spritely spirit & rhyme skill (as I’m so much of a rhyming poet myself), that I leave for you my comment, my like, and place on my Reading List. Most enjoyable, and wisely penned as well.

Lovely, my mortal words can't compare to the stunning beauty of your godly quill.

Us mortals tend to see the worst in life instead of appreciating the good things that we have. Sometimes ignorance is bliss, but it's got to be balanced.
Great write, Reggie. Thanks for participating in my competition!

Well now I’ve a new word to add to my vocabulary. I’m in love with the feeling of joy in the mist of an apocalypse.
