Joy-Filled

( after Agnes Török )    
   
   
So welcome to my little show    
Of inspiration’s need-to-know.    
In search of happiness to grow    
And have a life of healthy glow.    
   
I’m not even quite twenty-three!    
I’m here to show a destiny    
With all of you who came to see    
If what I spout’s your cup of tea.    
   
I spent my youth to never guess    
What did I know of happiness?    
In my belief had I been blessed;    
So now I’m here and on a quest.    
   
Applies to you? Just raise a hand    
For you and I to have a plan,    
To spread a smile thru’out the land;    
Uplift a life, won’t that be grand!    
.    
Alone or with a friend in crime,
It doesn’t need a word to rhyme.
But our duet between the time,
We think alike as one great mind!
 
To letting go without a care,
Like being filled with happy air!
Inhaling deep will take you there,
A dizzying self-love affair.
 
The love to laugh begins with you.
Receive the joy and when you do,
Like happy seeds that grow into
The crockpots full of happy stew!
 
For morning, night & afternoon,
At anytime and very soon—
To float up high over the moon;
A gift of health is laughter's boon!
