# My Little Joys #

This poem celebrates the simple yet profound moments that bring happiness to life.
From the warmth of the morning sunshine and the nostalgia of old melodies to peaceful walks in nature,

It serves as a gentle reminder that true joy lies in the small, everyday treasures that nourish both the heart and soul.

My Little Joys

It’s in the sunshine on my balcony,
Soft golden light that sets me free.
Old songs that lift my weary soul,
make my scattered heart feel whole.

Writing poems that touch my heart,
Turning fleeting thoughts into my art.
Friends like you, who make life bright,
Add laughter, love, and gentle light.

A walk through trees, a whispering breeze,
Nature’s whisper that makes me freeze.
My granddaughter’s sweet, sparkling eyes,
Like tiny stars in the morning skies.

A steaming cup, a Blog I write,
A painted dream in colors bright.
These little joys, both near and free,
Are the treasures that nourish me.
