Soft twittering outside the window
Feel of a beloved pet's warm fur
And their heartbeat
Sound of fluttering wings
Breeze in the boughs
Spring blooms
Summer siestas
Walking barefoot on grass
Or sands of a calm beach
Ebb and flow of waves
Surf spray, salty sea breeze
Sitting at the window, watching the world go by
Rain pattering lightly
Hot chai on a winter morning
Vacation days or long weekends
Late mornings and warm bedding
Dinner outings
Movie and lunch plans
Long talks with an old buddy,
Sitting on a bench,
No track of time
Fresh air, greenery, flowers
Holding a sleepy kitten while it dozes
Watching birds fly free
Little things,
All around us.
Just to be lost in these small things,
Brings peace and joy,
Makes the world right itself,
Energises the Soul,
Lightens the Heart.
For others, let there be
Sweeping, flaming victories.
Give me the well thumbed book,
The slow pace of daily life,
The mundane, the ordinary, the small matters of tiny twittering, mewing creatures,
The sea shore and the peace.
Small little joys
Daily.
