Simplicity

A touch of color, a fleeting scent of Spring passing into summer. Today there is rain. I enjoy my grandparents yard with its years of happy living, the way the birds nest in the trees and the roses embrace the morning lit sky. I love that there are only a few weeds, so that most of my time outside is spent enjoying the sights and scents. I would be jealous, but they have earned this bit of heaven.

I only hope that someday I will have a bit of earth as lovely as theirs.
