Simplicity

Happiness is the smell of wet Earth after a rain

The feeling of cold fresh air blowing through my face

As droplets slip off of the damp leaves and gently slide onto my skin

Happiness is watching that first sprouts of spring,

Breathing a new life of color and beauty all around

Happiness is walking bare foot on the grass

Feeling the little tingles as the grass brushes under my feet

Happiness is waking to cheerful singing of birds

Watching the Sun rise in the red violet skies

Gazing at the white clouds as they gently pass by

As I lay on my bed, pondering the past and the future

Happiness is growing old surrounded by loved ones

As we witness the little miracles of nature everyday

Happiness is to watch my kids grow

Into thoughtful adults who care

There is much more to life than our ourselves and our needs

Only if we have the time to stop and look at the big picture

The happiness that nature brings
