It's the Simple Things

Waking late to a sunlit room 
Singing birds outside the window
Two cups of coffee and a bowl of granola,
still in my pajamas

It's the simple things

Floating in the Gulf
Sand between my toes
An SPF 30 protected kiss from the warm summer sun,
bringing color back to my cheeks

It's the simple things

A turkey sandwich, chips, and Pellegrino
An afternoon nap
A double head shower with waterfall pressure,
raining down over my body

It's the simple things

A relaxing dinner with my family
A hazy pastel sunset over an uncrowded beach
Coffee ice cream on a chocolate sprinkle cone,
in the late evening hours

All these things, 
priceless, joyful, simple.
