Hand in Hand (As seen by the Muses of Joy) Who comes there ecstatic? Two creatures nomadic Whose gait though unmatched Through hand’s clasp – attached. O’er dry leaves they wander As days breadth they squander A leisure of joy A man and a boy Ah come now and spy it Not one can deny it The dad’s inclination The boy’s adulation A pat on the head there Of boy’s sunfilled red hair And then frisky whisking ‘Mid tasket and tisking Away through the pasture In frolicking gesture A hip hold and flying A whirling and sighing A frolicsome day this ‘Neath canopy boundless A feeling transcending A play never ending Now love filled and joyworn To mom they go reborn To retell their journal In love’s terms maternal. ********* Ah joy like mountain’s peak Toward light through cloud doth seek Release from toil through play Achieved this autumn day.

(smiles) Awwwwwww, this is soooooo beautiful, sweet friend, I wish more boys and dads could feel like this nowadays, for I see so many boys and their fathers that are so apart from each other now! (sigh) Your lyrics show that there is still love like this that exists today, sweet friend, God Bless You, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Joe, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |
