Joy
It’s an emotional streak that is ignited and glows,
It's a running tap that fills a bath and flows.
Joy is one of the deepest of emotions,
It encircles in motions.
Singing gives me joy,
Like a child playing with a toy.
Inspirational songs reach the hinds of my soul,
Bringing me back complete and whole.
Good music indeed has a therapeutic effect,
Taking away every flaw and defect.
Joy could be short-lived,
We fall apart even though we believed.
Perpetual joy is a fruit of the Spirit,
It is boundless and without limit.
