Poem

Joy 
Is enthusiasm 
Personified,
And enthusiasm is from enthuse,
Which is from God,
Which is important
To most, not all, and this is okay.

Because we do not have to get our 
Joy 
In the same way, with the same ideas,
From the same books, or thoughts,
We also cannot experience joy
In the same way.
It would be nigh onto impossible,
As we do not have the same
Backgrounds, or the same
Experiences, and certainly
Not the same families.

But wait, butterflies and 
Dragonflies and flowers are
Joyful to all of us, right?
Not if you stepped on an
Angry bumble bee barefoot
While you were looking at them.
Not if you were molested in a bedroom
With them on the wall.

The same rights and wrongs have 
Not happened to us.
The same writes are not going to happen
To us either, although, to be truly honest,
I am quite enthusiastic when I read a
Poem and six neonate ideas spring out of
This poet’s ideas into my waiting, 
Anticipating brain!
Sometimes I can
Barely wait to 
Get to my
Computer
Which is why
I try to read
Everything I
Can.

Because right now,
Even if it is only for
A year, or only
For nine months,
Which we are coming
Up to in a few days,
Writing poetry is
Currently my
Latest obsession
And it still brings
Me joy.

As soon as the joy is gone,
I will disappear and no one
Will know where, but here is the
Why.

Because I do not do things
If they do not bring me
Joy.
Because there 
Would
Be no
Point,

When I lose
Enthusiasm
It is over.
Writing 
At one time
Was a big deal
For me, but I
Lost the joy,
And it was
Gone for 
Nigh onto
40 years.

Obsessive compulsive?
You bet.
Joyfully so.
