Simple things in life

a message from my family so far away
the trickling sound of a creek bed
sunshine on my face
a sweet look from my hubby
laughter from children
seeing elderly couples still holding hands
and most of the things already said
 
The stunning beauty of this wonderful planet
The smell of freshly mown grass
The welcome I always get from my little yorkie Tia
The Massive hugs I get from my son when he says "I love you mum"
The sun on my back as I weed the garden
The look of love on my husbands face even after all these years when he calls me his "lionheart"
A glass of wine on the patio on a warm summers evening watching the Swifts darting about in the sky
All of my "girls" who run to me when I shout "My chick chicks"
and last but not least to sit in my special place in the garden and contemplate how blessed I am, heres a pic, its a flower bed and seat I built in memory of my mother who passed four years ago and no matter what time of the year there is always something in flower for her........

My favorite simple things:

A dog lying on its back to sun its belly,

smell of fresh baked bread,

butterflies on flowers,

laughter,

a chicken "wagging" its tail,

fussy little hummingbirds.
 
My grandson saying "I love you "
Watching my ducks play in the sprinkler.
Watching guineas chase bugs on the hill
Picking that 1st ripe tomato.
Hearing that satisfying pop of the canning lid
Sitting beside a mountain stream fishing for brookies
1st spring flower.
To sum it up, Nature.(except winter)
