There is joy in the world

Inspired by joy. There is joy in the world By Michelle Morris 23/07/2025 There is joy in the world But sometimes we're too busy to notice Every bird that heralds the morn Every sunrise that brightens our day Every sunset and starry sky and aurora Every colour and sound ever displayed Every rainbow and cloudscape we treasure Every country and culture and language Every person and every soul Every angel and demon we know Every emotion and feeling we experience Every lesson and blessing in life Every quark and atom and cell Every delightful meal and meeting enjoyed Every moment we never want to end Whether with a lover or a friend Every child that jumps into puddles Giggling and splashing about Every toddler that makes a delightful mess Grows their spark of curiosity evermore Every person who does a happy dance When they've accomplished something awesome Every person who jumps and high fives A win for them and their team Every form of art in the world Expanding hearts and minds Every colour we use to express ourselves Capturing creativity in all its splendour Every piece of music and writing Uniting souls beyond any limits Melodies and lyrics and poetry Rhymes and rhythms and song For nothing is impossible When you understand energy and magic Frequency and vibration Starlight and stardust and miracles Seasons and changes and moments Nature and consistent timings The rhythm and rhyme is everywhere Geometry and mathematics and science There is joy in the world It's waiting for you and I Oh, my darling can't you feel it? It's beyond space and time © Michelle Morris, 2025
