A moment of Happiness

It caught me be surprise

I was sitting on the porch

minding my own business

watching

in the later afternoon sun

as brightness

pales to dull glow

a squirrel 

robbing the birdfeeder

and my does

(or so I think of them)

bedded down

unconcerned in the pasture

and the quail fat 

and unconcerned gorging on sunflower seeds

and there it was 

 

a moment of happiness

 

and for that moment

I wallowed

in

contentment
