Oh, Joy!

This poem was written for Fandango’s Dog Days of August #12

Today’s Prompt is: Something that brings you joy

Here’s what I came up with:

Oh, Joy!

Joy is the feeling of great pleasure and happiness

So, basically anything the opposite of crappiness

The question is what in life brings you joy

A movie with friends, maybe a new toy

A walk on the beach, a dinner of comfort food

A lottery win, or just having a positive attitude

Joy can be in receiving a bouquet of flowers

Spending time with the one you love for hours

The pleasure of hearing your favourite song

Find something you for lost all along

Maybe your joy is in writing a bestseller

Mine would be finding treasure hidden in a cellar

Wherever you find happiness and joy

Remember to share it and try not to annoy

Help everybody find pleasure and share a smile.

Even their happiness can bring you joy for a while

I hope you enjoyed this little poem from me

Writing it brought joy to me you see
