strange small things that delight me
the taste of jasmine tea
in my old green mug
while sitting under the oak
calzone at the Italian deli
across from the bank
and its memories of youth
the scarlet dawn sky
as rain nears
during a heat wave
the smell of sandalwood
from the iron incense burner
in the little room upstairs
the scent of the air
after a thunder storm
in mid July
recreational thrift shopping
finding a great blue blazer
on sale
the haunting shakuhachi melody
from the CD player
early on Sunday morning
what strange small things delight you
