The blur of golden grass draped over hills and the hum of air whistling by Stretched out in a car with splashes of sun or lights reflected in my eye The conversations with a stranger not by phone but on a desk Like waiting for a message in a bottle and returning every day to check The eruption of emotions when a book or movie finally succeeds In capturing my heart and mind without fading once I leave The secret thrill of adorning fun socks covered in ducks or rainbow stripes Like the eighth wonder of the world and for my friends a breathtaking sight The discovery of an item from the “lost and found” scattered across every street A good luck penny, a sparkling rock, each treasure bittersweet The embrace of laughter and the rose-colored tint Of basking in the sound of chaotic gatherings with mouth-watering aromas carried on the wind The breath of heat that thaws my blood after escaping the chill outside Icicles clinging to my bones and frozen in my skin but strangely satisfied A reminder to myself when days feel empty Of the little things in life that make me happy

Little Things that Make Me Happy
The blur of golden grass draped over hills and the hum of air whistling by Stretched out in a car with splashes of sun or lights reflected in my eye The conversations with a stranger not by phone but on a desk Like waiting for a message in a bottle and returning every day to check The eruption of emotions when a book or movie finally succeeds In capturing my heart and mind without fading once I leave The secret thrill of adorning fun socks covered in ducks or rainbow stripes Like the eighth wonder of the world and for my friends a breathtaking sight The discovery of an item from the “lost and found” scattered across every street A good luck penny, a sparkling rock, each treasure bittersweet The embrace of laughter and the rose-colored tint Of basking in the sound of chaotic gatherings with mouth-watering aromas carried on the wind The breath of heat that thaws my blood after escaping the chill outside Icicles clinging to my bones and frozen in my skin but strangely satisfied A reminder to myself when days feel empty Of the little things in life that make me happy
