joy_returns
sabbie
from
where
she
had
been
off
visiting
her
friends
, arriving
home
loaded
with
presents
and
my
imagination
soared
through
the
night
sky
and
danced
the
charlston
with
the
stars
and
kissed
the
regal
moon
and
laughed
and
cried
and
screamed
with
joy
and
sailed
and
soared
through
black
and
silver
onwards
, upwards
towards
forever
.
and
all
the
time
i
cradled
in
my
hands
a
collection
of
beauty
that
was
so
achingly
familier
that
i
nodded
at
each
page
yet
i
had
never
seen
before
and
my
soul
made
a
collect
call
to
the
universe
(
who
was
happy
to
accept
the
charges
)
to
say
all
the
things
it
is
not
possible
to
put
into
such
clumsy
things
as
words
alone
.
and
i
stood
outside
gods
office
and
he
called
me
in
and
this
time
he
grinned
and
said
'
i
just
wanted
to
tell
you
how
well
you
are
doing
this
semester'
and
i
laughed
and
he
offered
me
a
fantale
from
the
jar
at
his
elbow
and
doris
showed
me
out
and
the
world
whirled till
i
was
dizzy
on
love
from
afar
and
thoughtfulness
from
friends
and
if
only
i
could
weave
this
feeling
into
a
shirt
then
i
would
wear
it
forever
for
such
gifts
as
these
could
never
wear
out
and
then
i
would
walk
into
the
sunrise
unafraid
.
thank
you
.
so
much
.

But
will
I
still
be
standing
here
when
she
comes
home
?
When
I
get
lost
in
the
woods
,
I
always
look
for
a
way
out
.

Joy

happy

alone
,
just
joy
and
