Catch The Joy

Maybe it's that they're just so happy. So colorful. So bright.

Maybe it's that they are having just so much fun - with their arms outstretched..their heads thrown back..their hearts wide open. I'm sure I could hear them laughing.

Maybe - it's that they're dancing.

Maybe - it's that they're singing...without caring if the words were the right ones..or that their voices sang in harmony.

Maybe it's that they're oh-so-very-brave..to be standing up there so straight and tall.

Maybe - it's all of these..and none at all.

But that - on a day that is otherwise cold and winter grey - it is impossible not to catch their love and joy..to spread it round and round. Because joy can be contagious.
