Beautiful Things

Today I’ll go to the galleria,
To shop for "small" precious beautiful things 
A ring, a necklace, and a tiara, 
That will totally pull at my heartstrings. 

I’ll meet a friend at the pizzeria. 
Before that, I have to get that new dress.
Shoes and bag to match - ala Senora, 
My look, surely my friend will be impressed.

On my way to buy my favorite things, 
A resplendent flower cloaked me with awe,
The stranger’s sweet smile meant everything,
Heartwarming was the gaze the lovers threw,

Utterly wonderful delights! Me thinks.
They are just simple, but beautiful things!
