Life's Bouquet

Tankanelle Form

 

 
fountain of flowing treasures
   may our senses taste
life's sweet bouquet of pleasures

awaits searching souls
  with nothing to waste
ev'r striving to reach our goals

partake life's measure
  serenity consoles
sweet ambrosia we savor

 stirs our desires
    with passion's flavor
anticipation's fires


success shall we win
 life's dreams and visions
line the dawn of each new day

 
we weigh decisions
 with care from within
      fountain of flowing treasures
      which  brings us the best bouquet.

Congratulations for winning the tankanelle contest! I've not been getting any e-mails from WC.org and just now noticed it at Albert's page.
