Her beautiful garden of sunshine
Each day she enjoys life's little things that give her such joy
One spring day she planted a flower bed with her mother
Each day she always making sure that she watered the flowers with tender love and care
In the sun kissed garden of hers, a small garden of flowers appeared
Colorful and vibrant flowers bursting like a kaleidoscope of beautiful colors
One day she was filled with such joy as a caterpillar spun a cocoon on a nearby bush
Fascinated she always went and peered at the silky cocoon nest each day
Much to her delight one day as she looked a small beautiful butterfly emerged from the cocoon on soft and gentle wings as her tiny wings fluttered
The beautiful butterfly hovered around for awhile as the little girl held out her arm to the butterfly as it perched itself upon her arm
Smiling so happily she started singing a happy and pretty song
Her kitten called Teddy always watches the butterflies in the little girls garden of sunshine
Some days the little girl just enjoys the songbirds as they sing their sweet song in their nest
Other days she enjoys munching on her apple pie and milk that her grandma made for her today
Sometimes you do have to take time to enjoy the simple and small things around you that gives you such joy
Even if it is just for a few moments today
