Special Moments

I love the sound of the ocean
as sparkling waters crest,
and the song of many birds
drifting in the wind.
I love the fresh scent of cotton sheets
on a bright sunny day,
and spring flowers
in a vase by my bed.
I love the soft trickle
of raindrops on my roof,
and a good cup of coffee
with a very good book.
I love the sound of
a glassy waterfall
crashing to earth,
and the sight of a big yellow moon
on a cool Autumn night.
I love glowing embers
crackling in a fireplace,
and cuddling with someone dear,
on a cold winters night.
I love to see a red bird fluffing his wings
on a snow covered branch,
with classical music
serenading his every move.
I love to see an American flag
flying proud in the wind,
and the tradition of
warm apple pie
on a Sunday afternoon.
I love the soft touch
of a babies delicate face,
with cheeks like pink roses
as she quietly sleeps.
I love being in love
with special moments like these.

I understand, and agree, BloomingRose. I call these special moments 'natural highs'. Who needs drugs when you can curl up on a snowing december day with a fuzzy blankey, a cup of hot chocolate (WITH extra marshmellows) and a really captavating book? You help us realize how much life has to offer. Thanks and blessed be!

Deb~
And, I love seeing your name in these blue pages.
This is so absolutely gorgeous, my friend.
It brought and smile and a tear, but not a tear
of sadness...a contented tear of the heart.
Thank you SO MUCH for sharing this with us.
I'll be watching for lots more from you.
Hugs,
~Vicky

Oh the smell of cotton sheets just off the clothes line.

I sure used my clothes line this year. The dryer broke!!! Thank goodness.
