****
Because when you stop
And look around,
Life is pretty amazing
****

Sometimes, tiny things
Make your day a bit more beautiful

Like an ice cream on a cold windy day
Or a ride out to the bay
To watch the waves lap
Against the shore

The crunch of dried leaves
Under your feet as you walk
The sound of silence
In this cacophanous world

Watching a new dawn so bright
Or the moon rise up at night
A surprise hug
Meeting a pug

A smile from a stranger
Being praised by your beloved
Or anyone for that matter
Sitting by the fire
Enveloped in the warmth

Jumping in puddles
Watching a rainbow
Droplets of dew
Or a starry night sky

A good book to read
Maybe new; maybe not
A cup of coffee in your hands
Perhaps that's all you need

They may not mean much to others
But a wise person once told me,
"Everything matters,"
And often, these little things
Provide us with the most joy...
