Hand outstretched to the sky, face tilted to the heavens a smile on my lips in anticipation of rain. A drop on my eyelid, another on my hand and the sky opens and cleanses the world. My hand moves to my side my body relaxes water dripping down my face. I feel at peace as the water washes away all so I start to walk again slowly to my car. The water is sloshing under my shoes making a very silly sound that I enjoy but the sound stops because I have reached my destination. I reach in my pocket and procure a set of keys and jam the right one into place. Getting inside the car I am only slightly aware of the fact that I am getting everything all wet, there are just more important things to worry about. Like...
Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens
Bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens
Brown paper packages tied up with strings
These are a few of my favorite things
Getting out of the car I walk up to my door and step inside. "I'm home!" I yell into the quiet house. "Mommy!!!" A little blond boy runs into my waiting arms and I kiss his head. "I'm hungry" Well I guess any greeting is better then no greeting. "I'll start dinner in just a minute sweetie" "OK tell me when its done please" and then I watch as he heads back to his bedroom to play. He is so sweet and innocent breaks my heart that he is going to grow up and probably hate me and some point. I put my purse down and begin to think about what to make for dinner...
Cream colored ponies and crisp apple strudels
Doorbells and sleigh bells and schnitzel with noodles
Wild geese that fly with the moon on their wings
These are a few of my favorite things
I wonder over to the fridge and open the freezer being that I am still soaked to the bone I begin to shiver. Finding the chicken I pull it out and put it on the counter. Now would be a good time to change clothes so I head to my bedroom and get changed. Comfy, silky pajamas are the best and I start to feel like I am in my comfort zone. Wait a minute what am I missing here...
Girls in white dresses with blue satin sashes
Snowflakes that stay on my nose and eyelashes
Silver white winters that melt into springs
These are a few of my favorite things
Ah yes the hubby, down the hallway I go to the office Sven's domain. I walk in and he is concentrating on his battle with some misc mob on WOW and dose not notice my arrival so I slump down in the chair next to him. "Hi sweetie how was your day?" "It was good really busy today glad I'm home" "Yeah" "I'm making chicken for dinner" "Cool thanks baby" I get up and go to the kitchen to preform my wifely duties and sigh...
When the dog bites
When the bee stings
When I'm feeling sad
I simply remember my favorite things
And then I don't feel so bad
