PLAN OF HAPPINESS (for SJH)


We lived before we came to Earth –
They had a preface there –
They taught us how to choose the right
Through wisdom, virtue, prayer.

We chose to test experience
By coming to this life.
Our vehicle: an Ark of joy
In spite of storms and strife.

The Dove holds out our destiny:
A branch of olive peace.
If we reach for that promised state
Our freedom will increase.

(2 April 2009, BYU, Provo, Utah)
