I don't know about you,
but I love watching the sunrise
washing my sheets
changing them, and watching the puppy
search for the old smell,
roll around in the new one
I adore seeing orange and blue
intertwine in the sky
I think it's funny,
listening to my mother scream
over fries, because I know I can
make her laugh again if I'm patient
I think hair is beautiful,
when it's wild and free
not held down by the millions of chemicals
I take in the moments when there is a hurricane
no one drives past my house during these times
so I lay in the road until I hear trees begin to crack
and sit under the carport, letting the rain brush me
I love spending all day,
writing quotes down in a notebook
reading poems and thinking
about inspiration, why they chose
the words they did
I love the bonfires on summer nights
because no matter how far you get from the fire,
you stay warm
I am grateful I can walk through the forest
jump over streams
and climb the trees
I admire the way smoothies taste
when you have a bad hangover
(or at any other time too)
I love to run until my feet turn red
because I love to watch the world
fly by me, and know that it is endless
I could probably list and list
go on forever
because I think they're all wonderful
