What is Joy

The feeling of warmth,
When with families and friends,
Receiving gifts,
Learning new styles and trends

What is joy,
Is this the feeling,
This bright warmth inside me,
My scars are healing

Comforting, bright colors,
Dazzling colorful lights,
People having a good time,
They are your shining knights

Atmosphere full of sharing,
No sight of this thing called hate,
Look at that beautiful sunset,
Time to go or we’ll be late

Is this what real joy is,
Spending time with the ones you love,
A true sign of peace after a flood,
Like that olive carrying dove
