Ordinary

 

No one sings bout

the ordinary days

The sound of a blue

jay

The rustle of the wind

on leaves

The smile of your

son

The joke from inside

Taste of veggies

from grill

Fun of the chill

A moment away

Song in ur head that

plays

The ordinary way

Nobody can say

Or see

The beauty in the

ordinary way

 

Who can feel

In their heart when u

pat ur child

And a comfort

comes u erase

fears

A love without tears

Is a treasure to long

for

Its the ordinary that

holds the secret to

the universe

It repeats itself

Missed only in its

absence

I love it so.
