“Always remember to follow any pursuit

imperatively providing instant pleasure.

But please, forget not to embellish with salute

and goodbye, before moving to your next treasure.”

These speeches repeated and heard so frequently,

push us blindly into a never-ending quest,

turning us into prisoners mourning bleakly,

what has been mirrored as the supreme aim professed.

Now what if we could turn this to everlasting

contentment, pure creative construction instead ?

Two types of pleasures, non equal yet contrasting,

would show us how very often we are mislead.

O lovers of gladness, and seekers of pleasure…

Recall : Be always wise about your measure !
