small things

Small things gave me a lot of pleasure today.
The ironing folded and put away
Finding a stamp tucked into my purse
A mug of ginger tea
An unexpected hug from a friend
Scout choosing to lie across my shoulders
Breathing in the lavender when I brushed by
Murrons hand on my arm
Rowan pulling up a chair and reading beside me
A drawing of a dandelion
Finding a bookmark with a small poem written by Rowan years ago. It was from the Scottish Poetry Library and using the letters of the word LEAF you were encouraged to write a four word poem. Rowan had written
Lightly
Each
Angel
Fell
I remember thinking how beautiful her words were and how very typical of her.
