When she turned again to David her voice was flat and the joy of life seemed to have gone from her.

Violence and joy seemed to swell in her veins.

The joys and pleasures of the game seem to disappear in a commercial caldron.

The joy of living in a small community seemed to be dying out.

She can't find a job, and in her struggles to support her family, all joy seems to have left her body.

"But if it's all the same to you, the joy seems to have been deflated."

The joy in my face seemed to startle her.

"The joy of it all has seemed to have infected the city."

Their joy hi each other seemed to brighten the very air around them.

All the natural joy seemed to vanish, as bubbles break into empty air.
