The Inside of Joy
Stu Harley May 2024
what is joy
the
intervals of
soprano blue laughter
that
climb over
the
rainbows of happiness
that
dwell inside
of the
little boy soul
is
the
inside of joy
Stu Harley Jun 2024
When love shed her leaves of gold,
A fleeting autumn in the heart,
A tale of warmth now growing cold,
A masterpiece that falls apart.
When love shed her leaves of gold,
A sunset fading into night,
A story left untold,
A star that dims, losing its light.
When love shed her leaves of gold,
A silent whisper, once so bold.

Love Is Where I Am
Stu Harley Apr 2024
No need for a compass, no map to unfold,
Love isn't a destination, a story untold.
It blooms in the present, a warmth in my chest,
A smile in your eyes, a place I find rest.

Love whispers in laughter, in moments we share,
In gentle embraces, a comfort so rare.
It lives in the kindness, the way that you see,
The best part of me reflected in thee.

No distance can sever, no future unknown,
Love's essence surrounds me, wherever I've flown.
For love, my dear love is the air that I breathe,
Wherever I wander, with you, it will weave.
And love is where I am
