Your liveliness brings me enjoyment, Time with you is gratifying, When I'm with you, I'm happy. Your smile makes me cheerful, I am lighthearted. Without you here, I'm depressed. I lose, Strength.
The times we have are the times I hold Dear to my heart and to my soul Your eyes, always shining bright Lighting up the darkness Saving me from fright Things that bump In the Night.
Joy _______________________________________________________________________ The Reason for life the one that makes it better It makes your day better It turns you around for the better You notice you life will turn out better With joy
Eternal happiness is now mine. With you my darling by my side. And love shall always persist But the darkest moments Shall rumple our love But we still live  With passion. O the Joy.
Im glad there are more participants! I will give much more feedback the next judging, but I have no time for the last judging, so sorry wolf, I will give more this time. So.... Tacky wana judge? And how about...... Moon? Maybe Matrix? Please reply back here if you please to.
Happiness pouring out of our hearts, Melting into the bliss of life, No evil within our souls, Everything is perfect, Joyous people around, Nobody depressed Throughout the world, Smiles of warmth, The joy Spreads.
I'm not sure if the syllables are correct but that was extremely difficult to write. I'm not good at writing about happy things. Referring to those two judge slots, as you mentioned Tacky and Moon would do a good job if they wanted to but they might be busy since Moon is judging the Tanka contest and both of them are writing The Adventures of AG.
