A cup of hot coffee and your favourite read in the rain,
an unexpected smile while walking through the lane.
The rejuvenating dew on lush-green leaves at dawn,
Admiring nature’s best creation each time a toddler is born.
Those unapologetic sun tans on a breezy coast,
Little things matter the most!
Bursting into laughter till you can no more breathe
Relating to lines of a song with feelings lying underneath.
Curiosity of wrapped gifts on special occasions,
skies transforming colours with the changing seasons.
An overloaded chocolate dessert,
Hitting the party in your favourite skirt.
Dozing off on the corner bench going unnoticed almost,
Little things matter the most!
Building new relations,
catching up with old ones in some weird situations
A little messy, a little sweet
Towards perfection, yet incomplete.
Thinking (all of this) out loud, to someone in the middle of the night ; under the lamppost,
Little things do matter the most!
