Joy of the Lord

Joy of the Lord Joy refuses to hide or wear a disguise Bouncing brightness – bliss on springs; Dances on tiny toes of fiery flamencos No colorless embraces –knows the steps; No shadows of grey in its cloak Only shades of clearest light; Incandescent transcendence of perpetual motion Never slumbers – never needs a nap; Always nascent nativity Breaths renewal Son powered battery; Inventor of jubilation - Hallelujah ecstasy – Gloria elation -Praise euphoria; Benediction of merry mirth Speaks beatitudes of delicious delight; Glee on wheels – rocking and rolling Merriment like twilight candle light; Clowns around with hilarity Pals around with happiness of the moment; Radical hospitality not a fleeing ghost Permanent wave – permanent eternal smile; Never absent – resonating generosity A little craziness of an upside down emoji; Stares down petulant, whining faces Welcome mat always out; Enthusiasm invades invasion of jocularity Happiness revolution resolution; Pirouettes in peaceful promises Precious plentiful pearls of shining wonder; Taps on windowpanes with eternal enrapture Always available to dance; Unrestrained tail wagging exuberance Springing up with blinking lights – can’t wait to bless; Bright eyes tickle the deepest marrow Strength tousles somber cores with joy: Joy inhales moments of transparent gladness - Exhales a sparkling galaxy of glimmering satisfaction!
