Sometimes you see something beautiful
Today it was raindrops on a bin
All lined up, sharing a space with a web
So on the way to school we looked
Finding pretty raindrops
Stunningly adorning cherry blossom
Dreamlike on a skeletal hydrangea
Dangling from railings like chandeliers
The conifers were full of colourful snails
Making their way up to somewhere
Plus one slug that clearly had FOMO
Then I found big puddles to get the mud off my boots
And my littlest one found teeny puddles so she didn't get wet socks
Teeny puddles still splash
I briefly attempted to demonstrate whale song as part of a game we play and was advised against it
I played some on YouTube to show I wasn't actually far off
But the dog wasn't keen
And I'm inside an empty house now
(The dog under blankets on the sofa fully aware there was once a rule against that)
The rain is still falling
This time I'm aware of the tune
And the chill in the air
But I'm glad I experienced the part of the morning that I curated for myself
In the middle of everything
Things are still beautiful
