Where do I find joy
Is it in my work
Sorting out lives
Yes maybe
But that is more like
Looking in the wrong end
Of a telescope
Everything very small
When I think of joy
I see floating on the river in sunlight
Watching the terns and turtles go by
Oblivious to humans
Or reading the perfect phrase
A Rilke couplet
Maybe joy is the last few moments
Of meditation
When my head is filled
With light and vibration
It only happens once in
A thousand times at work
But when it does
It truly hummmmsss
Yessssss
