Simplicity

This weekend was a very excitable one. Friday night, after doing a "butt-load" of homework, I went to Cole brook for the Stay-awake-a-thon. I had to stay awake all night long in the Colebrook school; there was a dance and many other activities. It was a lot of fun! Then, I helped Tim out with a concert he put on at his house. The chamber players that performed were extremely nice and fun to talk to. After all the crap I went through this past week, it is nice to have this precious weekend.

The song of a bird,
flowing through the breeze,
The midnight air
with it's crispness and freeze,
A snow flake falling down,
onto the solid earth,
An announcement in a crowd,
to introduce a birth,
A cozy night by the fire,
that you never want to leave,
The favorite shirt of the bunch,
that fits just right at the sleeve,
A prayer of hope,
from a child a his bed,
A sparkle in the eyes
of a crush's head,
The scenery of the world,
that is the background of everything,
A cup of hot chocolate,
and the warmth it will bring,
All of these priceless items,
are the simple things,
that we all find in our core,
that form into our wings,
They are savors that save us,
from the moments that we dread,
the arms that warm you,
and turn your heart back to red,
I have forgotten how these simple things,
feel inside of me,
and I will never forget,
and I hold them dear to me,
Out of all the simple things,
that one that gives you the most,
is a friend to love,
and to hold you close......
....remember.....simplicity gives everyone the greatest thing of all...that warm feeling in the heart.
