Simple Pleasures


Towels warmed on the radiator embracing newly-washed skin

Being able to jump out of bed one more day

Clouds of night receding from the advancing morning sun

Laughing with friends at how our children see us

Being able to say yes to a friend

Planning a trip

Anticipating the glee of a grandchild cut loose in the country

Maple donuts warm and fresh from the making

Arms sore from shoveling snow – I can still do it!

Practice notes on the cello turning into music – magic

Love notes from children written during church and slipped into my pocket

The feel and smell of fresh linens

A warm bed on a cold winter’s night

Another day – alive on planet earth
