Good Things
Good Things

Succulents
Fuzzy, or
Crowded in a pot, or
Shaped like rosettes
Hand carved figurines
Miniature,
Wooden,
And animal, of course
Grabbing peppermints from a restaurant bowl
One (1) handful
Making hot drinks
Drizzling honey into tea, or, if I can’t sleep,
Sprinkling cinnamon into warm milk with vanilla, but it’s important to
Stir and listen to the spoon drag circles on the bottom of the mug
Street lamps
Old, and
Frosted with snow
Picking maraschino cherries out of drinks
Finish drink, then
Use straw to pry cherry out of ice cubes, then
Slowly tilt glass into mouth, then
Wonder why you didn’t use a spoon
