In "A Simple Life," one of 365 poems in this collection, Patsy Bunton extolls "the morning sun, the dew on the ground, the beauty of creation we see all around." From her appreciation for the fundamental gifts of life -- and for life everlasting -- Bunton draws inspiration for her poetry.
In Joy Comes in the Morning, the followup to her debut collection, Morning Mercies, Bunton shares poems that celebrate God's love and abiding presence. Whether praising her creator for the rain that falls "like teardrops to the earth," or experiencing God ("all that there is or ever is to be") in the lifting of the fog, or even in serving up a lighthearted homage to family ("kinfolks are glad to see us come, but they're glad to see us leave when all is said and done"), Bunton finds extraordinary meaning in the most ordinary moments of life -- and thus connects squarely with her readers.
These poems, which the author has dedicated to her granddaughter, can be used as part of a daily devotional time. "I pray that as you read, you will find in these words inspiration," says Bunton, "and that you realize God deserves the glory for anything I write."

"When I awoke this morning, A new year had begun; A year of special memories Given to me by God's Son."
And so begins the opening stanza of Patsy Bunton's debut collection of published poetry, "Morning Mercies." The poems in this book were handwritten by the author in her journal and intended as a gift to her grandson, but her writings touch on many of the universal truths we all hold in common: love of God, love of family and an appreciation for the simple joys of life that our Savior provides.
While not necessarily intended as a daily devotional, Bunton says this collection may be used as such "if the reader finds in these words a source of inspiration from the same Creator who inspired me to write them. I pray my words will be used to bring glory to God and a smile to the reader.
"Since I was old enough to write, God has inspired me to do so. When God speaks, I have to pen the words."
