When you meet joy 
Even in that momentary experience,
This ephemeral emotion unravels
All those colors of contentment
Which sparkle from within,
Transcending gloomy alleys of angst
Spreading shimmering beauty
Which can keep gleaming around us
If we breathe it in, savoring soft sounds
If we gather those divine resonances
If we overlook the prickly peeves
If we revere this exquisite emotion
It can become a perennial stream
A vibrational intuitive sensation
An inward journey, a self-healing step
If we learn to tap into its enormous energy!
It can define the quality of our life
Which brings delectable delight
To divert our attention from
The real robbers – ambitions, aspirations
If we halt, if we look around
If we take a break, to relish life
To appreciate the aroma of living
To escalate the whiffs of joy.
