the happy things

The sweet perfume that comes from a rose

The feel of a snowflake that lands on your nose

The countryside smell of freshly cut hay

The protective arms of a mother that sends your
fears away

The stars in the sky you just cannot reach 

The sand between your toes as you walk on the beach

The warm embrace of two lovers in the dark

The cold bracing wind as you walk in through the park

The things that make us happy might the small things we do

The small  happy things are a gift for all of us for me and for you
