Season of Joy

The lights, the love
the glad tidings
Joy to sing of
And five gold rings
With hope’s for peace
and hate’s decrease
And bits of wit

My Inner Peace

My soul’s filled with
joyful silence
holding this myth
in defiance
of all the sounds
of life’s surrounds
to stay this day

It wasn’t long
before the fight
Both sides weren’t wrong
nor either right
To have dessert
with no one hurt
was still a thrill
