"Simple things matter"
Listening to my grandma's anecdotes
of when she was young.
Taking some time alone pondering
about memories of the past.
Dancing and singing to my favorite song
when no one is home.
Indulging with a sugary and comforting dessert.
Are the motives why my days lightens up.
Having a conversation with a friend of the past
and the opportunity of seeing their face again,
have made me cry of happiness once before.
You can say that I am simple person,
but untimely the material and artificial things in life diminish
and what it is left are the moments that made you smile.
The instants that the rest of the world disparage
for instance, unpretentious acts of kindness, memories of a first love
or the sweet feeling of victory when you accomplish a goal in life;
are the reason of my good spirits and contentment towards the raising days.
