Comfort and Joy
What brings comfort and joy?
Is it morsel of nourishing encouragement?
An alliance of peace and serenity?
Is it morsel of nourishing encouragement?
An alliance of peace and serenity?
Whirlpools of chaotic activity?
Is it a walk in the woods?
Perhaps a musical performance?
Just a talk with the Creator of us all?
It is impossible to list all the ways.
Isn't that enough itself to bring comfort and joy?

Beautiful poem! Flowers are comforting like you said :)
I love your poetry Genie you are very talented.
Very thought-provoking. Have you thought about anthologies?
Reading your poems bring me comfort and joy :) Thanks for sharing another beautiful one.
Travelling through the desert is one of the things that brings me comfort and joy. This short poem has a lot of depth and power.
I especially liked 'whirlpools of chaotic activity'. Flowers and 'dirt therapy' are a comfort and joy of mine, too. :)
Very beautiful. Keeps us in touch with our spirituality.
Short and sweet and yet is says so much. Beautiful. Hugs Mary
