Simple Things…

Flowers 5

smell of fresh rain…

a cool breeze on my sun-warmed face…

bees buzzing…

coffee perking…

flowers blooming…

children laughing…

cookies baking…

wind through the evergreens…

birds singing…

hugs and kisses goodnight…

 

 

Today and Sunday, Enchanted Oak would  like to celebrate the simple pleasures of life with you. For each person who participates with a list, a poem, or a prose piece about the joy of simple things, their  family will donate $2.00 to Heartline Ministries for their medical clinic and other programs in Haiti.

Here is the link to Enchanted Oak.                                         http://chrisalba-enchantedoak.blogspot.com/2010/02/let-challenge-begin.html

Thank you, Magpie, for taking time today to remind us that the smell of cookies baking and the sound of wind moving and the sight of flowers blooming are irreplaceable and priceless. It was wonderful to visit you. I loved your favorite quotes on the left side, and your shoeprint musing. I am also dealing with a mom who has health issues, like advancing dementia. It is a challenge of a different stripe when you become your mother's caretaker. Sort of like going full circle in a symbolic way. We share the same interests you and I. Maybe we'll visit again. Have a blessed day, dear.
