Lucid Waking

The arts of BNielsen

Ode to the little Things in Life

Fresh apple cider and peppermint tea;
Hot chocolate and raspberries;
Petite fours and potpourri;
Sandwiches with cucumbers and cream cheese;

Teddy bears and porcelain dolls;
Pretty glass bottles and pink lip-gloss;
Venetian masks and a music box;
Books, music, and striped knee socks;

Forests, water, fire, and ice,
Roses, swans, cats, and mice,
Presents, snow, pointe shoes, and dance,
Drawing pencils, dresses, and a second chance,

The ability to push your demons away,
To always look forward to another day,
To breath and stretch and feel awake,
And to have many opportunities to take
