Stop and smell the roses
Never let a moment go by wasted
Take in the feelings all around you
Breathe in, do not be hasted.

There was a fish in yonder pond
His fins of which he was not fond
For walking was his goal, you see-
to walk around like you or me
...
Simple Things
Stop and smell the roses
Never let a moment go by wasted
Take in the feelings all around you
Breathe in, do not be hasted.
The smile of a child as they lick a lollipop,
The sting on your stomach caused by a great big belly flop.
The warm feel of cocoa on a freezing winter day
The smell of blooming flowers on a sunny day in May
The comfort of a brand new hoodie, amazement of its feel
Being with the ones you love at a great thanksgiving meal
Jumping in puddles and running through the rain
The minty taste on Christmas of a red-striped candy cane
Spinning in dizzy circles until you can’t stand up
The sweetness of the summer sun and smoothies in a cup.
Take in the simple pleasures
You can find them everywhere
It’s the little things in life that count
And for those you must truly care
