Simple Pleasures

Watching all of the sweet smiles on a loved ones face Running around the race track and keeping up the pace Touching the dew drops glistening on the wet ground Going out to dinner then stepping out on the town Getting together for a picnic in a lush green park Laughing and playing many games long after the dark Walking barefoot over the soft warm sand at the beach Looking up at the stars at night that's too far to reach Sitting and talking on the porch gazing up at the moon Wondering how awesome not wanting to go to bed too soon Humming a lively tune or singing a medley of love songs Thinking about what went right and not about the wrongs Tasting sweet honey from a hive freshly made by the bees Smelling the fresh aromas emanating from magnolia trees Listening to the voice and sounds of every living thing Enjoying the many blessings that a brand new day can bring Remembering the good old times that you and others shared Hugging and kissing in showing others how much you cared Giving a helping hand to some who show they are in need Sitting there with the lonely showing someone a kind deed Savoring the taste of a succulent and very delightful dish Watching a shooting star at night and then making a wish Reaching out your hands to others always with a tender touch Telling your friends and loved ones how you love them so much Reading a bedtime story to a young child sitting on your lap Getting together with the youth just for a little time to rap Wrote a letter then picked up the phone to dial an old friend Enjoy the simple pleasures in life for soon it'll come to an end Copyright 2013
