A Few of my favorite things

With apologies to Rogers, Hammerstein and Julie Andrews, I’ve written my own 2020-21 lyrics to go to the tune of “My Favorite Things”:

Early spring gardens with bright colored flowers

Rain clouds and drizzle and long April showers

Soft scented petals that usher in spring,

These are a few of my favorite things…..

Kids on the playground, just running in sunshine

Picnics and parties with friends that are mine,

Long summer evenings

Just watching the moon,

These are the things that I’d like to do soon…………

Sitting with family and friends at a bar,

Traveling to places both near and afar,

Hugging my friends with no masks in between

These are the things that I want to have seen!

When I’m quarantined!

When I’m stuck at home!

When I’m feeling mad,

I simply remember my favorite things and then

I don’t feel QUITE so bad!

Hope you have your own list of favorite things. Happy spring!
