Joy and sorrow
Are but a coin
Two faces profess

JOY and SORROW


Sorrow
Laughs with Joy’s
Failures,

Joy
Cries with Failure’s
Successes!

The Lies about tomorrow,
define all truth today

Deceived by joy and sorrow
—all promise gone astray

Sorrow carves her way deep into our hearts
Joys are easily forgotten along the path
Why is it so hard to forget pain?
So that life’s lesson may not go in vain...

With every sunset, love renews,
A bond unshaken, tried and true.
Through joy and sorrow, loss and gain,
Together, love, we shall remain.

My co-workers, like clowns, are laughing.....
plotting against me; I get an eerie feeling.
I am the nicest fellow,
sharing joy and sorrow;
guys have secrets they shouldn't be telling!...

Joy and sorrow,two Skies,

Down pouring,

Tear rains,

Every drop of tear,

Bears a value like pearls,

The wailers on death,

Inviting synthetic tears,

Enjoy value,

In monetary terms!...

JOY AND SORROW*



Joy and sorrow,
Over 
The tempestuous seas of  
Tears,
Endlessly navigate!

 *When we jump for joy, we cry!
   When we sorrowful are, we cry!...

This world is full of heartache
An ache that makes the joy
More poignant and real, 
If we only care to notice.

And when we notice
Joy and sorrow dance
A dance that makes it all
Worthwhile.

The boat of joy

and that of sorrow

over 

the tempestuous seas of tears

endlessly navigate!*

Unknown to mortals,
is the time to depart.
For it is short but insightful,
It is fast but impactful,
Life,
with them tears and laughs,
joy and sorrow,it is purely finite,
for both the early springs and the grey.

Ashes to ashes

This is the day

Of that reminder..

Two stories leap

One of a missing

Between

The other of 

Beginnings and

Endings and a

Between lived

In joy and sorrow..

These two

Are not two......

Ego agenda
Narrow and futile
Yet in delusion
We are bound therein
Tragicomic life

The wheel of time
Slowly rotates
Joy and sorrow
Cyclically

As a leaf
Blown away
Until death

This life
Wasted 

Gone

Dare do as you say
Upon this highway
Joy and sorrow play
Where plot and cast sway

As fond feelings merge
Word for word flings urge
In a deeper purge
As odd echoes surge

The self..

Some capitalize to

Self..but it is all

The same self..

Yet it is not the

Self we thought..

The self appears

As story character

Empty and unknown

Beautifully engaged

In a script

of joy and sorrow......

midst joy and sorrow womb to man

          you held me sheltered in your hand

               now to your prince so ne’er to roam

     thru Heaven’s gates … I walk you home.

Once,

joy complained to sorrow

for

the misfortunes that brings

in Man's way
 

“If

I was not around my friend” the sorrow replied,

“no one would have ever noticed

your existence”

midst joy and sorrow, womb to man

          you held me, sheltered, in your hand

               now for your prince and ne’er to roam

     thru Heaven’s gates … I walk you home.

In laughter and tears,
In joy and sorrow,
I'll be your strength,
I'll be your tomorrow.

With every breath,
With every heartbeat,
I'll cherish our bond,
I'll make it complete.

And till my last day,
Till my last,
I'll hold you close,
Till my life has passed....

Echoes of tomorrow dance around my brain

Songs of joy and sorrow mixed in love and pain

Marriages of feelings swirling intertwined

Promises repeating as waking dreams unwind

A sip of morning coffee to fortify my mind

All casually  forgotten  as I face the daily grind...

Graceful, tall grasses
A raspberry sun peers through
from the purple sky
steps ahead of tomorrow
to nature's joy and sorrow.

Burgundy fever
smoking beautiful colors
when shadows run wild!
Must get one more glimpse of red
'ere sweet dreams enter my head.

Tears 

When they roll down the cheeks
They help us in being relieved.
Sometimes what the words can't say
They take only a second to convey..
They are both for joy and sorrow
Can't be stolen or borrowed.
They come from the depth of the heart
When someone is torn or broken apart......
