Poetry: My favorite things

by Sawsan Elzayyat

Hand me a chocolate bar, creamy and smooth
Let it melt leisurely, indulge my sweet tooth

Turn down the lights please, and hand me a book
Now go away, leave my cozy nook

I'll open the window, invite a quite breeze
Slip into bed, give my pillows a squeeze

Blissfully content with my favorite things
Perfectly happy - I may even grow wings

For I plan a long evening in a dreamland of rest
Ever more peaceful, hopes rising to the crest

So leave now, don't linger, do not delay
My favorite things and I, all worries at bay
