A Joy! A Joy!

A joy!
A joy!
A joy to the world
Born October 27th

A Joy!
A joy!
To my baby cousin
Of 2 years old

What a joy
When i see him I smile
For he is the new world life
He is the world's new innocents

When I see him my struggles go away
Struggles and pains
Which would only Taint that his brightness
Which would kill that innocents

A joy!
A joy!
Such innocents as to inspire hope
So as to inspire others to bring the same light to the world.

So please
O Please
Keep the gleam in your eye
The Gleam that can lead others in the dark

And as you do
Don’t waste your strengths
Don’t waste it on picking the same baggage up every day

For if you do
It will become yours 
Weighing you down and down

Use that gleam to help others
Carefully carry others baggage with them
And help them to carry it on their own

All so that one day
When a new joy
New innocents will enter the world
You too will appreciate
That which you’ve brought to the world
