At the center of joy, lies the deepest of sorrow
In its golden display dawns the birth of tomorrow

As the highest of peaks cored the chasms of fire
In the height of the sameness, but the depths of desire

In the lightness of spirit chained by foot heavy cinch
To weight down the bright sound in the pounds per square inch

Yet the purpose deployed is pure genius employed
That the heart soars at risk should the ground be destroyed

On a lifeline of trust, the indelible must
Meant to capture, enrapture and protect from the rust

With each breath buoyed in, then will ever begin
A true joy that is light as the heart is held in

Wise words- lovely written-

Susan

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

nice feel to this

love the phrase "indelible must"

Whether on the shoal or on the shore,
I'll seek the lighthouse evermore.

Very clever.  I especially like the use of rhyme within lines...
"Yet the purpose deployed is pure genius employed"
I enjoyed this wonderful poem very much!
