I like looking at the sky
Its colors make me smile
It is effortless art before my eyes
And it reminds me how pretty the world is.
I like smelling the rain
as everyone does
It smells like hope and new beginnings
reminding me of romantic Taylor Swift songs
Watching snow lightly fall
Or leaves drift in the wind
Puts me in a magical mindset
Reminding me how pretty the world is
Sometimes the world isn’t pretty
There are ugly hearts and sad faces
missing out on the pretty days
forgetting how pretty the world is
and making it ugly for the rest of us
But, they are far and few between
even though they seem so common
Because prettier than turquoise waves
sparkling and crashing and who just keep coming
Are the sparkly laughs of our best friends
The solace in a warm hug
Mittens holding other mittens
The simplicity of wishing others a nice day.
A meadow of colorful flowers is lovely
As are stars stealing the show against a velvet sky
But nothing compares to kindness
Nothing compares to connection
Nothing is prettier than compassion.
I can have a pretty day without these luxuries
I can have a pretty day all on my own
Even still, I have prettier days ahead
By choosing to be the pretty among a mental storm.
