My heart swells with gratitude for:
French toast in the morning and burgers at night
sunshine on a golf course
long distance phone calls
text messages
blonde hair, blue eyes and a big smile
yellow orchids
cupcakes with sticky icing
Dutch accents
watching Game of Thrones
laughing about Game of Thrones
hugs
gently falling rain
Happiness is when what you think,
what you say, and what you do
are in harmony.
Happy
fingers.
Tapping
jumping
sleeping.
Warm and fuzzy.
I could fly.
I enjoyed the poem Shawn L. Bird posted yesterday and decided to try the prompts she shared, (I am…, I have…, 3-ing words, I feel…, I wish…). The above piece is what emerged. Thank-you Shawn 🙂
My telephone rings
jangling nerves with its chime
an unexpected call
my world changes
I hear your voice
quiet, calm, self assured
distance obliterated in an instant
I hear your voice
could there be a lovelier sound
my heart sings
a prayer answered
release of held breath
hope and happiness arrive
delivering a restorative message
“we are still here
we haven’t gone far”
I dare to accept hope
to take a chance
to believe that all will be well
equilibrium gained
I dare to believe in happiness
for you
for me
I dare to believe that you will find healing
solace
a way to deal with your addictions
I dare to believe that I will find acceptance
letting go
the ability to watch you fall
so you may rise above the demons that have tormented you
to believe we will find renewal
peace
a way to move on
my telephone rings
calming nerves with its chime
my world changes
