I want joy for three
My wish is for joy
Not for myself, I have more than enough
But for three others who seem to dwell on the worst possibilities
Their agenda is full of gloom and doom
I want them to feel joy at least one more time
One has stated she wants it, she does not know how to get it.
I have made suggestions but they will not work
Another said he has not felt joy since he was a boy
He is seventy-four-years old.
Surely, we can get some joy to him, wishing well.
The third person who needs joy does not realize she needs it
She thinks her life is fine
She is always fine
I want her to be more than fine.
I want joy for three.
That would be enough for me.
