Joyful

Perfect 
in words and acts
love 
has no regrets
its energy 
unrestrained
by longings 
of the past
droplets 
love united
through rocks 
cut a path 
where 
where there was 
a desert
colorful fountain 
blast
a river of serenity 
washing away
debris  
blooming color 
songs
harvest summer
fest
not fearful 
of the future
not burdened
by the past
morsels of time
it savors 
with marveling 
content
work becomes play
jumping 
in the unknown
water joyfully falling
on rocks and grass
a song 
sparkling light of eyes
to weep and soon to smile
from tears to joy of play
rain to sun again
music of heart is love
dancing to its beat
like droplets or seeds 
that die
to change and live again.
