Dear Sadness,
Please meet Joy.
She comes with her friends
Awareness, Gratitude, Self-Acceptance and Love
She comes with all of my friends too
She comes with mountains and oceans and rivers and valleys
And sunshine and flowers and dogs and yes, even cats
She comes with farm animals and sea creatures
She comes with a whole safari of the wild and free
She is holding babies and belly-fulls of laughter
Her pockets are overstuffed with fine art and music
and chocolate and fresh fruit
Behind her Hope and Relief are dancing together
So you see Sadness, there’s quite a crowd forming
I don’t think there’s room for you here
anymore.
