To know you’re alive by feeling the blood flow through the vein,
To dance in the rain,
To help irrespective of loss or gain,
To smile through the pain
Life is indeed about the little things.

To have little, yet be happy to share,
To sing without a care,
To have sand at my feet and wind in my hair,
To breathe the cool, fresh, brisk air,
Life is indeed about the little things.

To see a flower bloom,
To smell the fragrance of my favourite perfume,
To connect with friends via zoom,
To wear my mother’s earrings which is my favourite heirloom,
Life is indeed about the little things.

To gaze at the clear blue sky,
To enjoy guilt free all the fudge and pie,
To watch a sad film and cry,
To enjoy the banter and goofing around with my guy,
Life is indeed about the little things.

To spend time gardening,
To feel at peace while moon gazing,
To know about the world through reading,
To pour my heart out through writing,
Life is indeed about the little things.

To spending quality time with family,
To laugh wholeheartedly,
To always offer help readily,
To be content with little and live happily,
Life is indeed about the little things.
Overthinking doesn’t yield results,just a decoy,
To take away peace of mind and let the bigger worries of the unpredictable future burden and annoy,
Coz ultimately, it’s the little things that bring the greatest joy.
So, sit back, breathe easy, savour these little things and learn to enjoy. ππ₯°

This is a rich beautiful poem full of all those little things that make life abundant! :))
