It is the weaving entertwined
Iterated patterns of Nature's colors
And Textures in all her variations.

Joy is a raven-haired, sapphire-eyed
Creamy skinned, timid beauty.
Standing on the edge of space
Eyeing all - missing none- total absorption.

Joy is a halo haired, golden skinned
Miniature magpie - Eyes of caribbean sky and sea,
Chattering and hopping, verbal and curious,
Touching, twirling, twittering and dancing.

Joy is a fiery-haired, porcelain faced
Steady, eager witness with eyes that hold
The depths of mountain lakes and
Lips of luscious plum - a vessel of Love.
I know these Joys - for they invade
My heart, and make it swell to bursting
They make me long to gather them in
And hold the world within my grasp.
