*beauty in life's aspects
all within your hand
the rising sun
the setting moon
the gently shifting sand
the touch of horse's muzzle
eyes so brown and mild
the smell of brewing coffee
the laughter of a child
the feel of grandpa's callused hands
the grace of a ballet
the awesome dome of bluest sky
watching children play
life can be* SO *ugly
so many twists and turns
so caustic to the soul
as lye or acid, burns
take a moment of your day
to lie back and just reflect
on the goodness Grace has given you
in gratitude collect
all the blessings you have now
and those on mem'ry's shelves
place them fast over your ear
as though they were conch shells
listen to the ocean
listen to the waves
it is a song, it won't be long
before we're in our graves
yes... take those fond
remembrances
hold them to your face
they are to sway
like a sachet
lavender and lace*

I've been thinking GOOD thoughts for
The last little while. Life's been very hard.
But.there HAVE been pleasant aspects.
For now I'm dwelling on those.
