A Joyful Life

Amazing! A joyful life
          Bestowing special blessings,
                  Eschews strife,
                         Keeps xylophones 
               Very quietly dinging
   In my ears.

Caren Krutsinger November 3, 2021 at 10:08 AM I like the soft delicate melody of this write. L Milton Hankins November 3, 2021 at 10:31 AM I have no idea where this came from. It just popped into my head and I went with it. I think Trixie came to visit me, and then just as suddenly left!
