Joy

“Love with its inherent joy is a bait to catch souls. Throw it into the still waters and you can see water rippling with life around it”---- By Poet

Men are on an eternal quest, To find joy, looking here and there Not knowing true joy stems from within, Like the musk deer ignorant Of the scent emanating from its body. It is a treasure worth more than any riches One who has joy within, Can spread it to others. Is not this our mission in life? Giving the gift of joy, Spreading cheer all around, Splashing in the clear pools of mirth, Bobbing up and down in self-abandon! Like the cool breeze that blows Like a sweet symphony that flows It thrills and delights, And comes to nest, In hearts, pure and upright! Joy dissolves, Like sugar added to tea, Lending life a new flavour. Sorrows sink to the bottom, To be brought to the surface, With every slight stir, Like the dreg that settles, At the bottom of a teacup, Making it unsavoury to sip. Know life is not all joy Joys and sorrows together make life.
