State of happiness

Mankind united in conviction
That happiness is all they need
Although there's many contradictions -
Not every soul could even fit.

A woman striving for a good home
For children sake, that well-brought up
A man desires of an income
That always rich and never stop.

We chase the growth, the fame and holies
Relationships of proper kind
The satisfaction has been promised
By those who wrote accepted sign.

Civilizations, wars, empires
Discovery of a virgin lands
Amidst the history in lines -
The ceaseless quest for happiness.

Inside the framework spirits flows
Attempt to maximize our joys
And then to minimize our woes
Thus feeding well our inner voice.

We act or speak - the suffering follows
As cartwheel follows animal's foot
The mind precedes the one that shallow
Moves toward light, within, for good.

I wish upon the happy kingdom -
An absolute divine progress
The magical portrait of a wisdom,
Where earning more and spending less.
