Joy Arrives - A Poem
Joy arrives
Joy dances and swirls
Joy given freely to those whom will accept this gift
The joy of living ones' life within the realm of freedom
A childs' joy untampered with and left to be experienced honestly
Yes, an honest joy
Free of hinderences
Free of doctrines
Free of definitions
Free to be expressed and experienced by all willing
Yes, joy born in freedom
Joy born in love
Joy given and taken freely
A joy that comes to visit
A joy that arrives to you this day, this moment
A joy to be shared
A joy in living and a living paid in the currency of joy
Be joyful this day
Be joyful this moment
Come to the joy of this moment
Arrive and depart in joy
Let joy make a home within your heart.
Allow joy this day
Now
Now, have we joy

Ah, it's so good. It's precisely what we need. All this "problems" set in this world will all be solved if we just tuned in to the emotional state who we truly are - we are beings of love and joy, because isn't that were we came from? Just go out in the late evening or night in the starshine and moonlight - lay down on the ground somewhere and ask Universe - show me your love and joy! and maybe you'll see that it's already there within you! :-)
Thanks for a beautiful poem :-)
Hi Mike,
Thank you for this poem on joy. It's not an easy state of being in these times, but as my friend Sharie at Sending Joy says, "All we have to do is open our inner eyes to see the real world."
Blessings your way,
Pam
This is beautiful and can be a lovely prayer, too. Thank you for your lifting words.

"the currency of joy"
Such a great concept!
Your poem invokes joy and our awareness of it. I can imagine your poem as a prayer that all children everywhere have this blessing:
"A childs' joy untampered with and left to be experienced honestly
Yes, an honest joy
Free of hinderences
Free of doctrines
Free of definitions
Free to be expressed and experienced by all willing
Yes, joy born in freedom"
Thank you.
Mike,
This is a beautiful poem. It reminds me of how the little things, or the simple things, can bring so much joy.
