Great literature is more often praised for compelling depictions of conflict and tragedy than for moving portrayals of harmony and well-being.

This collection of verse brings together poems of felicity, capturing what it means to be well in the fullest sense.

Presented in 14 thematic sections, these works offer inspiring readings on wisdom, self-love, ecstasy, growth, righteousness, love and lust, inspiration, oneness with nature, hope, irreverence, awe, the delights of the senses, gratitude and compassion, relation to the sacred, justice, and unity.

At times elegant, at others blunt, these poems reflect on what it means to live a rich, fulfilling life.
