Little Things by Mike Williams 01/30/2016 @ 11:51 P.M.
The wind blows through the fairy chimes,
How they tinkle in sweet delight.
The snow drops blossom fair in morning sun,
And display their bowed heads of white.
How they tinkle in sweet delight.
The snow drops blossom fair in morning sun,
And display their bowed heads of white.
A wren chirps bright and gay upon the fence,
As I watch on with a smile.
I linger on the front porch swing taking it in,
And rest my happy heart a while.
The trees show chartreuse buds anew,
Coming blooms in the spring.
The cardinal, the sparrow, and the mocking bird,
Charm the world in songs they sing.
I feel my soul renewed out in the garden,
How it brushes all pains away.
Here I am most alive and feel bursting with life,
It’s the little things that make my day.
