Rapturing One’s Goodwill

Rapturing One’s Goodwill

There are many things in life which bring great joy

For the child it may be just a simple toy

For others it may be to find the love of their life

Hoping that it will ease the pain of solitary strife

For others it may be to secure a wonderful job

Then looking forward to becoming a noble snob

You perhaps only seek a little comfort and quiet

Content in mentoring one's soul with a somber-filled diet

For the dreamer it may be to see a dream fulfilled

Rather than nightmares rapturing one’s goodwill

For the gatekeepers it may be to impart the truth

Before all innocence is lost on the indolent youth

For the reader it may be a chance to shape the mind

Rather improve one’s vision if instinctually blind

Thank you,
Joseph Pede
