Carbonated Consciousness
Happiness
Is carbonated consciousness;
The ability to be fully present
To live in the moment,
To immerse oneself in what is
With surrender,
Acceptance and faith.
It is not looking ahead
Analysing what is to come
Or glancing constantly backwards
At what has already been.
Happiness is the pop of a cork,
The fizz of a freshly opened
Fanta bottle;
The less I calculate,
Ruminate, expect,
Look ahead, plan
And try to control
The louder the POP of the cork,
The more fizz that will escape
Overflowing in miniature tides
Of froth and bubble
Unable to be contained
By the rigid plastic vessel
It was once trapped inside.
