These are some beautiful things:
A baby's first smile,
A bird in the wild,
A bride on the aisle,
A love that's worthwhile,
Warm wind in the trees,
The salt in the seas,
The buzz of spring bees,
Winter's first freeze,
A loved one's laugh,
A child's handmade craft,
An actor's autograph,
A newborn calf,
The sunrise in the sky,
And the sunset alike,
And kind passersby,
The stars in the night,
The wind in one's hair,
Sweet spring on the air,
A mother's care,
A child's prayer
The color of skin,
True feelings within,
The sound of violins,
And feeling sheepskin,
A book in my hands,
My feet in the sand,
Stories of another land,
And the promised land,
The leaves in the fall,
Mountains like walls,
Sounds of a waterfall,
The smell of rainfall,
Peace after war,
And petrichor,
And sand on the shore,
And a winning score,
Peace at night,
And perfect light,
And a first sight,
And a flying kite,
A smile so dear,
A kiss so clear,
A loved one near,
And a new come year,
And hope that everything will be okay
These are the beautiful things

I could go on and on and on about beautiful things, even ones that don't rhyme. I fall in love with the little things, like how my friend only eats apples with a knife, or how my mom never actually drinks her coffee, she forgets about it and leaves it in the microwave ten times a day. I love that my cat can tell when I can't sleep and comes and lays right up against my back and purrs to help me sleep. I love that whenever my best friend is thinking, she subconsciously touches the back of her thumb to the indent above her upper lip. I fall in love with little details. There are just as many beautiful things in this world as there are ugly ones. Don't forget to savor them. ❤
