Joyful Poems

Everything

Powdered doughnuts, screaming children,
Noisy autos and a silly red hen,
All the things everywhere, that, this, and then.
A week or a day, a minute, and an hour,
Everything all the time, candy that is sour.

The moon and stars and universe too,
All things everywhere, everything for you.
Big trucks, toy cars, tall buildings in our view,
Twilight, baseball, even morning

Make A Joyful Noise

let's make a joyful noise 
as we sing songs to our Lord 
let us strum a guitar, beat a drum
and tickle the piano key board 

in harmony, in sync
let our voices now be raised
as we give our Lord God
all of our praise

with pious psalms of devotion .
theological tunes of a spiritual notion 
reverent rhymes of

Jay’s jargon is jammed with jerky jammer
jiggery-pokery and jocundity. Jiggling joyous
joviality and jubilance, justifying Jay’s jollity.

Premium MemberJoyful

I went to a land of little
A place of lovely smiles
Candle sticks and butter cups
Clothes of many styles

She gazed at me
With crinkled eyes
She said “you’re just a boy”
“But, I”m all of sixty four”
“So what, embrace your joy.”

Tiny hands and tiny feet
Flowing yellow hair
She flew about as fairies do
I couldn’t believe that she was there

The path

He Is With Me

I cried out to God on bended knee
I listened as He prayed over me
That prayer made all the difference
Yes indeed it set me free
Now set free I am so joyful
All the day long I sing His praises
Lifted high above the heavens 
He's with me all of my days

Junco	

Just another bird you say
Juxtaposed to other birds unfair
Jettison your prejudices
Join with other ornithologists
Judging the Junco on its own merits
Jubilantly this little bird thrives
Joyfulness in its tiny song

Premium MemberThe God I Know


With a voice like thunder – some days
gentle blessings on others, as my heart prays
from the old, old story – 
His cross led to lasting glory
no one on earth would have expected
the beautiful love His grace perfected
as He died and was buried, 
His lifeless body was carried
away, destined for the lonely grave
who could have known

Premium Memberjoyful welcoming sun

Warming sun pulled me out onto the porch today
Gave my shoulders a bath in a joyful way
Thoroughly grateful, I decided to sit and stay
Sun welcome in November as she is in May
My heart feels happy, does a merry sashay
My spirit is uplifted by this loving sunny day

Premium MemberMerry Winter

You can tell it's finally winter,
the glaze of icy glitter
Darker mornings, sun late dawning
Freezing cold and bitter

Woollen hats, chunky scarfs
slippery and sliding paths
children's runny noses
Red lips and looking chapped

A festive time
Happy elves and Santa's sack
He sees if you've been good or bad
I know that for a fact

Christmas crackers, candy canes
Songs are played and party games
winter

Premium MemberJOYFUL JILL Nursery Rhyme

Joyful Jill is always glad*
In the Lord, she’s never sad
She does pray for Mom and Dad
To smile, even they are mad.

Joyful Jill hates being sad
And she likes Jack to feel glad
They both pray for Mom and Dad
For good health when they get mad.

*Psalms 32:11 Be glad in the LORD, and rejoice, ye righteous: and shout
