20 Things That Make Me Smile

An entry for Refresh the Soul — 30-Day Writing Challenge

First comes the opening of my eyes when I wake up With the early sunshine or the snow painting the green grass in a white carpet Having a piece of scrambled eggs and a sip of a coffee cup While I hug and kiss my pretty wife Feel the cat purring while rubbing my legs Sharing my time with a good close friend Or listening to some vinyl records Reading a new book I bought Maybe playing an old videogame Doing things like they were being done for the very first time Going for a skate ride in the park or a hike in the woods Or for a road trip through the country From having a diner in a handpicked restaurant A breezy night, lying under the starry sky Some good crazy sex A glass of wine and a cigar Putting my body rest in a nap Cook, write, dance, laugh Sit and praise the wildlife Sing a song and play guitar So many things I could mention here As the best things to do in life All of these make me happy All of them make me smile
