Little Things
The little things are not what happens between life. They are most of it. #
Fresh flowers on the table. Coffee exactly right. Finding five euros in a coat pocket. Yuri remembering the thing I forgot. A green traffic light when it is raining. Clean hair. Fresh sheets. The first bite when I am very hungry. A package arriving. A photograph coming out better than expected. Hearing a song I had forgotten. Taking boots off after a long day. Mom calling at the exact moment I was thinking about her. Dad saying something dry enough to make me laugh before he has finished. Four biscuits. The good mug. Somebody at work making coffee for everyone. A Dutch sentence leaving my mouth correctly before I have time to supervise it. Getting home. Locking the bicycle. Keys in the door. Warm air. «Bambolina.» Coat off. Life.
Remember me, Eclipse.
Why?
Because every thought leaves a trace. If something moved you, disturbed you, softened you, or made you think, leave it here, quietly.
