Enlightenment
There's a playful chirp
outside my window
and today
I don't want to shoot her dead
I've said my peace
there's enlightenment in my head
the sun she brings her smile
warming up a chilly day
she's been gone for awhile
but I know now she's here to stay
the coffee is hot like my memory
as I swirl you around inside
each sip a kiss of happiness
from the times we laughed and cried
so sweet, for not the innocent
guilty, but still we ride
to dream a dream of wonderment
one life, two souls collide

Fine work, JusTim. You equate enlightenment with happiness, an ideal combination. Knowledge can be harsh, but you present it with a gentle touch. Well done!
