daffodils in part comprise
the cheering section
for spring
Brightened By
a joy like the joy
of seeing an old friend
the cheering effect of pansies
So Many Workers Of Joy
we come upon
the elves hat rack
Santa’s workshop must be near
Oh To Bloom On
November sun transforms
the frost on the mums
into tears of joy
Always
the two at once
joy and sorrow
and the search for ways
to befriend both
To Make Friends
life presents us two companions
joy and sorrow
our task is to hold their hands simultaneously
Joy
sometimes joy leaps up
in my heart
like crocus from the ground
Joyful Like Twinkle Lights
strings of columbine
waltzing in the wind
shimmy in the sun
The Spark Of Tiny Berries
a glee of color
evidence
of nature’s joy
Last Hurrah
regardless
of the wear and tear
still exuding joy
Dizzy With Joy
spinning color
to the tips
of her petals
Confirmation
joy flew in
and stayed for a moment
proving it was possible
Saturation
so delicate
the density
of color and joy
