A Little Spark of Content

A little something I wrote that I look back when I feel overwhelmed with depression and sadness. It helps me feel better in those dark moments, I hope it can do the same for you.

As I sit here on the porch in pain

I can feel the crisp morning touch my face

The sun is peaking out and the birds are talking

I can hear the crows squalling and the woodpeckers pecking

There's still some snow on the ground

Where's the grass? It's March

Mother nature does what she wants

As she reminds me, cooling my breath

Even though it's a chilly morning

It's a beautiful day outside

The birds, the cars, the sun

There's always a little content

I love how the shadows look,

Hovering over the trees and homes

It's a sign that the sun is smiling

And that spring is a short blink away

The birds are a lovely sight, dancing in the sky

The pine cones hanging from the tall tree

Our Mighty Maple Tree still standing

After last summers harsh storm

Even though life may be dark and gloomy

A few moments of the morning light

Can make life shine a little brighter

And life seem a little softer
