April Showers
Showering me with
Raindrops on noses
and young sisters with kittens
Freshly washed sheets
and soft white flowing linens
Hung on the clothes line
out in the Spring air
With hopes that warm breezes
soon will be there
These are a few of life’s
wondrous blessings
so simple
so basic
and
yet
so
satisfying
For your consideration:
During the pandemic, do you find yourself all the more appreciating the simple pleasures? I do. I have. I will continue, I hope. I love hearing the birdsongs each morning, gently awakening me from my slumber. The city din of rush hour traffic that is no longer rushing has given way to a clarity of chirping, instead.
Okay, your turn:
What about for you? What are some of the simple pleasures you find along the way, during your day-to-day? I invite you to share your thoughts, feelings, and experiences by leaving a Reply in the Comments section, below. Soul-to-soul!
