Sound, Sight, Scent, Taste, and Touch

Location

The sizzling of food cooking on a pan
The purring of my lethargic cat as she rests upon my chest
My lover's laughter as I wrestle the remote out of his hands
These are things that make me happy
The look of appreciation when I praise a well deserved child on his or her accomplishments
The look of approval I receive by the person I look up to the most
The loving look on my parent's faces when I walk in my home 
These are things that make me happy
The smell of grass after it rains
The smell of my father's cologne that lingers around the house
The fresh smell of clean clothes
These are things that make me happy
The taste of the first bite of food...ever
The tartness of a strawberry
The melting of good chocolate on your tongue
These are things that make me happy
The feel of my lover's skin upon my own
The sensation of digging your fingers in a a bag of beans
The feeling of my lips touching his.
 
These are things that make me happy
