The little things in life are a blessing to those that hold the right to love the light, Melissa. I like the picture. To a snail, a mushroom is one big umbrella. this is a very good offering for the 5-7-5 Poetry Contest. Thank you for sharing this delightful picture and poem. :)

How true these succinct sentiments are - sometimes we fail to notice our 'unexpected blessings' and such a lovely visual to illustrate - thanks for reminding us !

Hi Sugarray,
Wish I had a six for this one! A beautiful Haiku with a perfect satori. Your chosen words are lovely that expresses the wonder of the unexpected blessing. Your photo used is very complimentary to your poem.
I marvel at the many varieties of mushrooms that can sprout up at a moments notice, lol. You are right, it IS the little things.
Best to you in the contest :-)

Hi Yvonne. Thanks so much.. the joys are really in the little things!! Btw, we leave for Arkansas tomorrow and divide our time between Brinkley and Bryant. It will be good to see my Dad and Hubby?s mom? both are 86 and in bad health. I will wave as I pass by McCain Mall. LOL. Thanks again.

You did a great job, Melissa, with your contest entry. Good job with the correct syllable count per line. The image is a good pairing, too. I like how you used the word 'showered.' Your message is clear--it is the little things in life that show up unannounced, but perfect for that time.
Best wishes.
Thanks for sharing.
Respectfully, Jan
