My Favourite Things Poem by Gayathri Seetharam

My favourite things
(Based on the song from the movie, Sound of Music)
-Gayathri B. Seetharam
Mountains with glaciers
Waves playing on the sand
Myself in a hat
These are a few of my favourite things;

Us dancing through life
Happiness multiplying with cross stitches
Batting of eyelids with tatting
These are a few of my favourite things;

Embroidery leading to comradery
Painting leading to minting money
Poetry leading to coquetry
These are a few of my favourite things;

Woodcarving and irvings
Fiction and fine diction
Cooks and bakers and likers of food
Engineers who are givers
These are a few of my favourite things;

When I can't read
When I can't watch a movie or TV
When I am feeling lazy
I think of my favourite things
Then I don't feel so like a missy.
