Love and Joy

by Tony Whitaker


She was lonely
for love,
sad to say.

For happiness
happens within,
as all love fades.

First look at yourself
until you find gold,
then find true friends
for they feed your soul.

Remember these riches
are not mined.

The joy of
just living
lies within
your own mind.
