Happiness 10-13
warm days, chilly nights;
returning to where you started and seeing it as though for the first time;
finding the mustard seeds.
warm days, chilly nights;
returning to where you started and seeing it as though for the first time;
finding the mustard seeds.
not waiting, but watching;
the storm finally over;
the cat snoring loudly.
finding a cashew;
a unicorn in your backyard;
being a beach ball.
a new perspective;
sliding on moonbeams;
a bee in your bonnet.
fields of rosemary;
the blue jay’s way;
the hinges freshly oiled.
feeling succulent;
night owls gathering;
rescuing her from the turret.
getting your toes wet;
hopping from branch to branch;
luminosity from within.
freshly painted;
lifting the tapestry to see what is behind it;
a room piled high with lavender.
red on brown;
idling;
exploring a different galaxy.
after the darkest hour;
recognizing the significator;
the queen coming to visit.
a loving cup;
colorful prayer flags flapping;
joining hands from coast to coast.
black-eyed susans;
pulling back;
a bunch of balloons tied to a tree.
season of mist;
keeping a promise;
the marvels of an old magician.
grasses of silver and gold;
tending the goats;
piles of opals.
letting in the light;
burrowing deep;
encountering the great sage.
the cloud’s message;
graciously accepting it;
the wind in your feathers.
leaves in a puddle;
dancing in the park;
overwhelmed.

being welcomed;
stepping onto the gangplank;
sitting under the Bodhi tree.
approaching the island;
slowly rising;
the chandeliers glittering before dinner.
the best knots;
feeling your way;
sparkles in her eyes.
finding your old stamp collection;
feeling buoyant;
Laurel and Hardy.
