With a nod and a wink to James Micheal, as while reading his poem "love is a paradox" I thought to myself, true love is a pair of socks thrown at the end of the bed -- and so . . .

Love is a para-socks
thrown at the end of the bed
odiferous and well worn
indiscriminately discarded
without care for order
or the disposal of dirty laundry
they just lay there
a testament to the truth
that love is all forgiving
of the little things
and all encompassing
of the large

s.a.t.

Happiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you.  Joy is a state of mind.

Smiling here. What a great turning of sentences and wordplay you've given us. This made me feel lighthearted.

Susan,
  Liked your play on words a bunch, too. Smiling at you... (I never quite know what I'm in for when I click your name, but can be certain I'm in for a good read.)  Clever.
