Simple Joys of home and hearth


Simple Joys

 Oh, give me the simple joys

That truly make life sweet,

Home and hearth and loved ones,

A pet beside one’s feet…

The sound of lovely music,

A cup of fragrant tea,

A walk through primrose paths

In a greening country lea…

A good book at the bedside,

A friend that’s ever true,

The warming days of summer,

The autumn’s vibrant view…

Oh, five me the simple joys,

And I’ll not ask for more

For in them lies great happiness,

Within and by my door.

 Virgina Bornman Grimmer


I love this poem....how about you?

Here are a few cozy things around the house...a dish towel that Laura embroidered (she's my apple pie baker), a kitty on the couch, and a new colorful pillow I stitched up, owl gifts that I love and a gift from a Korean business man, and pretty winter lights and decorations.  I hope your home is cozy too.

I am enjoying the cozy days of winter but I am ready for spring now!!
