Joy is contentment of the mind <br />Which in the heart you will find <br />When your heart is never blind <br />To painful deeds and words unkind <br /> <br />A joyful heart always tries to impart <br />Some sacred scenes right from the heart <br />With cheerful notions from the start <br />And cheers you up without throwing dart <br /> <br />The joy you will find in the human heart <br />Is not confined to those who are smart <br />Or who think they drive a better car <br />But to those who are the set apart <br /> <br />Joy is a state of the heart and mind <br />When with God they intertwine <br />Connect with love that is divine <br />Producing ecstasy so sublime <br /> <br />To have this joy you must decline <br />From sin and darkness in your life <br />Reach out to others and you will find <br />That joy is truly a state of the mind <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />All rights reserved.<br /><br />Gladys Brown Prince<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/joy-112/
