joy is feeling
looking upwards
skies enrapture
the sorry self
and its grievance
joy is seeing
looking westwards
social fracture
healing itself
from insurgence
joy is knowing

relieves oneself
from ignorance

is like drinking

joy is having
nothing to lose
and yet having

deflects the gale
joy is the wind
that fills the sail
when despair is
tricking the scale
joy is the clue
that tells the tale
when spleen is thick
and hopes are pale
joy is meaning
that lifts the veil
when no reason
can find the trail
joy is compass
though worries hurt
and fears injure
joy yields healing
beyond measure
though gloom has roots
deep in culture
joy at all times
sages nurture
though the reasons
may outnumber
joy is the wealth
wise ones treasure
though the mundane
exerts pressure
joy is accord

when the constraints
the spirit faze
joy is a door
out of the maze
when nobody
offers their praise
joy is moving
on anyways
when challenges
the psyche daze
joy is clear sky
after the haze
when upheavals
disrupt the ways
joy is respite
on heavy days
when there is fault
at the crossroad
joy is knowing
the cosmic goad
when the ciphers
the wit erode
joy is insight
breaking the code
when through hard work
seeds have been sowed
joy is seeing
blessings bestowed
when there's burden
and a long road
joy is a friend

joy swells the wind
running the mill
when there's no verve

leading uphill
when restrictions

joy is being given
the secret of silence
after the hard lesson
and the heavy penance
joy is being driven
to relay radiance
and this way forgiven
for past indifference

what was there left to do
standing at the summit

I wrote this for my husband and felt compelled to share--because as players in an infinite play, I am certain we feel this love universally for one another. Much love to you in this moment :)

Occasionally I stumble
across a cosmic crossroads,
existence shows me something
that changes all direction.
Giving my soul a wake-up call
from some part of the universe,
working through some other part,

I can't ignore all these thunder claps,
this longing in me that just grows louder.
All my attachments and passions expressed

Completely effortless, yet infinitely powerful.
