Joys Strength
I wish to see smiles on your face.
They shall appear by Father’s grace.
As you travel down human miles,
on your face, I wish to see smiles.
May joy reside deep in your heart.
I pray God blesses all you start.
Dark and light both lifelong abide.
Deep in your heart may joy reside.
Stop life from fooling with joy’s strength.
It has

A hundred tiny joys, a kaleidoscope of sensations blooming in my soul
A hundred tiny joys, a kaleidoscope of sensations blooming in my soul,
Warm water caressing my skin, a veil of mystery covering the world,
Birds chirping at dawn, a smile exchanged with a kind stranger,
The silence that envelops me, the scent of an old book, thumbed through countless times.
The smell of my favorite perfume on clothes, the

Passing Joys
Brenda has a big bottom,
it causes quite a wake
as she swims toward me.
Soft girl steaming up to my ********
chuffing like a tugboat,
mouth as wide as a catfish.
Such things are not written of
nearly enough.

The Joys of My Life
My Old Indian Beech frontyard tree
My evergrowing songbird family
My chair by inherited shelf of books
My circle of virtual mentors from
Whom I learn at my time of ease

The Joys of My Life
The sweet beach I call home
The park illuminating the night
The ocean surrounding our lives
The siblings I fight, reasons unknown
This is my life, my sweet beach life

The Joys of My Life
I love dancing to express, show and share my joy.
I revel in singing to the music, enhancing my mood.
Fashion, an aesthetic work of art is fun, I truly enjoy.
As a foodie, eager to try, seek out new or best food.
As a writer, I like emotive language … I am not coy.

The Joys Of My Life
Wed young- three babes I had by twenty-four.
Part-time, earned a B/A in English, and
my poetry and paintings seemed to soar.
More joys when five grandchildren grew, expand
to five dear great-grandbabies, I adore.

Bundle of Joys
Her smile shattered by the sadistic.
Eve became a statistic.
The serpent tied the sling.
Claustrophobic catastrophe - frail wing.
Her bundle of joys
blown to smithereens, her angel boys.

Time Flies Aloof
Days pass aloof to all hearts reap,
strays memories we wish to keep.
Ploys of time constantly remold
joys that we wish to ever hold.
While eyes close to deeply reflect,
vile time spies flashbacks to infect.
Should time leave my recall intact -
could be my joy would first react!

joys of having Poindexter
I lead the charge up the hill
My dragon puffed fireballs at the enemy
The other army was screaming and shrieking
They retreated and Poindexter flipped them away with his tail
Scooped them up and flung them back to their side of the continent
The joys of having a pet dragon can barely be touched on in a mere poem.

Joys of a Christmas Past
On that Blessed Christmas morn,
we watched with great delight one
of nature’s finest shows,
Streets were being covered by the
silent falling of pure fluffy snow,
Evergreen were decorated with strings
of twinkling lights,
They shimmered like stars, illuminating
the night.
Around the Christmas tree, the laughter
of children full of excitement and joy,
Busy exchanging and opening gifts

Christmas Joys and New Year's Hope
Reviving the world; girls and boys
Hearing of faith and Christmas joys
How Heaven showed itself and angel's song
Filled simple shepherd hearts and now a throng
Around the world believe
The tiny child superstar makes Evil leave,
Brings miracles to Light,
Stories of Biblical sight and might
Take us blazing into a New Year
Full of Heavenly Hope and a Tear
Of compassion for
