A Few of My Favourite Things…
Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens, bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens,
brown paper packages tied up with strings, these are a few of my favorite things.
Cream colored ponies and crisp apple strudels, door bells and sleigh bells and schnitzel with noodles.
Wild geese that fly with the moon on their wings. These are a few of my favorite things.
Girls in white dresses with blue satin sashes, snowflakes that stay on my nose and eyelashes,
silver white winters that melt into springs, these are a few of my favorite things.
When the dog bites, when the bee stings, when I’m feeling sad,
I simply remember my favorite things, and then I don’t feel so bad.
Today I’m contemplating some of my favourite things. There are favourite places, foods, comfort things, movies, colours and all matter of other things. Plenty to choose from, as you can see from the song most of us can at least hum the tune to, if not sing all the words.
Today I would like you to write about some of your favourite things. Be it your favourite food or your favourite spot to get away from it all. Write about your first time with/at/trying your favourite and how it got to be your favourite. Write about the best times you’ve had there, how/if you’ve shared it with others, so on and so forth.
Remember, to help clear your mind before you start writing, take a few deep breaths. Focus on the sound of the air entering and leaving your lungs. Let the noises and worries of the day fade for a few moments while you focus only on breathing.
After you are calm, think about your experiences and start writing.
Wishing you much creativity.
