sometimes joy comes when
we are not looking
it may be there, lingering
on a cool salty breeze
or in a steaming porcelain cup…
it could be
in a dog’s wet kisses,
baby’s breath or red velvet cake
or smiling eyes and belly laughs…
but here’s the thing
you have to notice it to
be blessed.

I mean the last two lines – “you have to notice it…”

Yes it is true. There are times when I am so busy I don’t stop to notice! I need to work on that. 🙂

Having a sneeze come out of the blue is a joy for me (whew that felt good!) but I certainly notice it. The other things in life I have to focus to realize I’m being blessed. Great poem.

Yep. I need to work the noticing. I sneeze in threes. Not sure you needed to know that, but hey. That’s what popped into my head! Joy Joy! 😀
