Little things like Sundays
and Children's happy sounds
smell of a cake baking
the sound of rainfall on window panes

The healthy  crowing of a rooster
the sweet  smell of fresh flowers at dawn
sound of waves against the rocks
the chants of an early morning  hymn !

The sight of sugar candy clouds
the bloom of mustard flowers in a field
sparrows bathing in  puddles
goldfishes  in a little clear  pond !

sometimes it's the simplest of things
that changes your mood for the better
it takes so little of nature's bounties
to make you feel so  wonderfully nice !

It's not the expensive or complex things
that really  gets you going and keeps you alive,
often we miss out the good  things in life
opting instead,  to get gratification from man made stuff !
