  2. She knew I was down, Why wouldn’t she come and bring me out of my misery. Shoot something at me, like a pot of gold. I could use that.

  4. A kitten presented with a ball of yarn. An actress landed the lead. I buy a new car. Millions presented with democracy. A plane lands safely. Paris Hilton buys another new car. It can fly. But that isn’t joy. Joy is safety and family and the ability to protect them both.

  11. I was overjoyed when I discovered what lay beneath my bed. Groping around under there I felt several things; Clothes, shoes and boxes until I grasped what I was looking for. The cold hard feel of glass. I lifted the bottle and felt the searing liquid flow down the back of my throat. How I’ve missed you.

  12. The veil was there at the foot of her bed again, more solid than before. From behind it came a soft breeze and merry laughter. She had been sick for so long… would she be able to reach it? Tentatively, she slid from the bed and groped to the foot, parting the curtains… overjoyed at what lay within.

  13. Huh. I guess she’s not coming. It’s okay–things are busy and it was really short notice. So no big deal, really…I’ll see her later on I suppose. And it’s my fault, since I only asked her–OH!

    “Hey, you…no, don’t worry–I know what’s it’s like to get hung up at work…”

  15. When you’re there, and in that spot. You can feel it, you can feel the happiness wash, move, change what you think. The way the muscles at the corners of your mouth feel like their in a stretch, like they’re just waking on on christmas morning.

  16. Overjoyed. That feeling of getting the perfect present for christmas, seeing your loved one after time away, getting that promotion, or even hearing your children laugh.
    Is it possible to be overjoyes however, if nothing seems that exciting anymore. Personally, I have not felt this emotion for some time, however I am now on a personal mission to find it.
    Finding simple pleasure in the smaller, finer things in life, will make all the difference to my remaining years on this earth.

  18. curiously the shoe wrote
    on the cracks
    on the sidewalk
    each shoelace tied itself
    to a song

    we were overjoyed
    the symphony sapped
    by the feet
    and the sticking of the soles
    to the dirt or gravel

  19. I love the word overjoyed. It makes you think of anythign thats good in the world. No matter who what or where you are and you hear that somebody is overjoyed, it puts a smile on your face. I know that it might not be the same for others, but I always am happy when I see this word.

    “I’m so happy,” she said, and she threw her arms around him.
    “Well, you should be. You deserve it.”
    He couldn’t stop smiling for the rest of the day.

  23. i had been working so hard, studying every day for countless months. i stayed up late making sure i knew that formula, or memorized the definition to that word. i cant even explain how overjoyed i was when i got that acceptance letter.

  34. One would think I’d be overjoyed at the thought of not having to work because we can’t find a job. But the truth is, we need the money. Desperately. And because we can’t claim benifits, we’re struggling while people who don’t deserve help get it. Its frustrating and I can’t help but feel the darkness coming closer.
