Take notice of
the
small things

the birdsong,
a stranger's smile,
the breeze on your skin

the little,
inconsequential
things

the flower swaying,
the warmth
of
the sun

the minute things,
the tiny dot
of a bird
circling in the sky

the skeletal
veins
in a leaf

and slowly
joy
will creep in

to even the darkest
of corners
