Happiness
Quiet gladness
Appreciating the small things
Who one is
What one has
In need or in plenty
Rest for weary
Knowing ease
Body, mind, and soul
Encouraged
Faith received
Now lifting strong
Contentment
soul
Song
Heart’s melody
Pouring forth
Carries us soaring
Voices lifting
Moves now
rich and deep
Building rising
Declaring calling
Now softly beckons
Soul’s expression …magnified
Laughter
Bubbling up
A joyful chuckle
Cleansing laughter
Lifts the soul
Small child’s squeal
Or belly bellow
Quiet giggle
For weary heart
A blessing true
To lift and heal
No scorn or scoff
But strengthening spirit
Bubbling up
A joyful chuckle
Cleansing laughter
Lifts the soul
Music Rising
Music rising
Lifting calling
Birthed from life’s being
Speaks soul-deep
Life’s great passion
Pours out itself
Gentle or roaring
Hear its voice
