Simple comforts to be grateful for,
sunshine to begin…
most especially after a bit of blustered in
snow
books to read, books to finish
books to open for the very first
time
so much to learn, so much to value and
appreciate
good writers, good humour, good
graces
good, good knowledge
a nourishing chat with my Mother on her birthday
delicately touching on
times of weighted responsibility
with kindness and
gratitude
to an
ease of years passing
gorgeous butternut squash soup
with rustic spicy homemade croutons
made by my lovely husband
lovingly devoured and also appreciated
by me
deliciously warming from the inside
the softest, nicest, bringing-everything-to-this-one-moment-right-here
lingering kind of kisses
a multitude of blessings savoured in
each one
given and received, intentionally
before he heads off to work
the house unusually empty
except me
instantly turning the volume up loud
grab a basket of laundry,
align oneself in gratitude
for the great surrounding of love and gratefulness
manifesting in this
life
in this body
regardless of the weight, the cold
shadows
of passing days
to always finding oneself
absorbing light
and today,
for just another day
spent
in
sunshine ♥
