Bliss

Wallace Dean LaBenne

Experience rhapsody and be overjoyed.
Realize ecstasy
and keep spirits buoyed.

Encounter exuberance and then luxuriate.
Accept protuberance
and ameliorate.

Travel to seventh heaven and know the rapture.
Lavishly life leaven
and zest recapture.

Delight in titillation and ride with the thrill.
Love exhilaration
and fancies fulfill.

Recognize jubilation and be elated.
Observe exultation
and be pulsated.
