Stepping into Joy

We leave the lift on the 15th floor

And walk into the office

I am stunned to see how big it is

100 work just here at the Joy headquarters

Rows each forming a department

We stop; Iris introduces me to a few

I hurry down to sit in a seat

Gary, my brother normally occupies

But he's in Cairns and I am here

I next get to meet CEO, Peggy Huang

As we embrace I know in my heart

We are sisters of this cause

Both working for the children

A better world and future

Caitlin, I have come to the right place

To start the journey of HOPE

As we leave Peggy's office

I comment about a beautiful artwork

Hanging on the wall just outside

To find it's a photo that's been taken

By Joy's President Sam Chen

I'm off to see next door

My heart soars
