#68 The Best things

Deep, intense, secrets shared with a beloved, 

Staring into each other's eyes, beautiful and sacred. 

Leisure and longing from morning to night, 

Magnanimous silence, speaks with might. 

Idle chats, spicy gossip, casual banter, 

Life lessons, anecdotes, learnings, unending chatter. 

Time spent laughing and crying, with a friend, 

Conversations that don't wish to end! 

Waking up to an unexpected message, 

Receiving a surprise gift in a package, 

A quick, heartwarming call, when tired and busy, 

Random acts of affection, that make life easy! 

Holed up with my favorite read, 

Devouring every word, with reflection and speed, 

Warmed up by the characters and their stories, 

In the farthest corner of my library. 

Tucked away with my thoughts and coffee, 

Ruminating, engrossed, content and happy, 

Staring long into the nothingness, 

Enjoying the moment, the happiness! 

A musical note, a forgotten lyric, drifting suddenly, 

a tear filled smile, for a long buried memory. 

A sweet letter penned with eager innocence, 

proclaiming undying attention and forever presence! 

And then, the battles with the imminent gloom, 

Can they really suppress the potential to bloom? 

Part of the journey, ups and downs, 

Regardless, with pride, I wear my crown! 

The best things, the easiest things, 

The simplest things, 

Profound moments with deep meanings, 

Small slices of life, oodles of everything!
