– wandering through old growth forests
– seeing the sunset into the pacific
– breathing in the fragrance of summer
– seeing joy in another’s eyes
– hearing my grandson’s laughter
– being breath-taken by art
– being dazzled by autumn’s palette
– tasting the richness of chocolate
– being immersed in the rhythms of music
– feeling the softness of my lover’s lips
– seeing the morning dew sparkle
– hearing the sweet lilt of a thrush
– knowing the quiet of snowfall
– raising my voice in song
– drifting on a clear mountain lake
– getting lost in poetry
– feeling my lover’s gentle touch
these are some ingredients
of my wonderful life
…my secret ingredient:
