[POEM] A Beautiful Lifetime

Once upon a time, as I begin this story,
I approached a girl i liked, with a query.
"What is it that you desire? my fairy
"Happiness" she replied, with a smile so cheery.
And thus began my quest to make her merry.

Happiness is like the ocean, full of fishes, big and small.
Each fish equally important, in this vast aquarium, shaped like a ball.

I contemplated fishing for happiness, but failed 
Mustered my courage to dive but later bailed
Every fish i encountered, had a hook
There is always a catch, you've just gotta look.

Then i found a sunken ship, full of treasure
Extravagant and bewildering, in every measure.
The ship was repaired and ready to travel the seven seas
Adventure awaits, and so do a lot of mysteries.

The fairy chose to travel the seas across the nations
She realised that it's the journey that's fun, not the destination.

While searching for happiness we found each other's company,
And the rest of the story, as you know, is a beautiful lifetime's epiphany.
