A Bit of Joy
Days run into nights, nights into days;
we adapt, we adjust,
to ever-changing challenges.
A stranger once said to me,
"I pray you may find a moment of joy
in each day." That loving bit of wisdom
has inspired me to search for that gleam
of unexpected joy which lifts me up again.
Faith sustains...
Family stays close...
Friends uphold...
Music soothes...
Books can bring respite...
For all that, I am grateful.
Each may bring that moment of joy in what may be
an otherwise intense day.
