Jubilant Joy

Join in jovially for our jamboree.
Unpleasant thoughts – just toss them away!
Become your best self, and have bonhomie.
Ill will, be gone. We won’t have that today.
Leave cares behind; do not hesitate.
Arise! Come with us, and join our throng.
Now is the time. Don’t make us all wait!
Thrill to the music of our gleeful song.

Joy for evermore. . . could it ever come true?
Obliterate negatives. That we must do.
Yell Yippee Ki Yay; let your happy shine through!
