the illusion of happiness...

the illusion of happiness...

A Poem by Huw

Do you sing because you’re happy

or are you happy because you sing

or do you sing in an attempt to give

the illusion of happiness...


Is your smile the outward effect of inner joy

or is it a mask of pretence you wear.

Are the words you speak from the lips alone

or are they from a fountain of sincerity 

that flows from an understanding mind

that is fed by the Spirit of wisdom…

Someone told me they sing sad songs so I asked. Are you sad because you sing sad songs or do you sing sad songs because you're sad.

I've been commenting on someone's drawings for a couple of months and she asked if I was a published poet. It made me laugh because I'd left school at 13 years old and never completed formal education.. more..
