Things I'll Never Outgrow

 
Pretty stones stored in a jar
 
Searching for a shooting star
 
Catching toads after the rain
 
Old doilies made with tea stain
 
Adorable, stinky puppy breath
 
Spiders scaring me to death
 
Thunderstorms late at night
 
Clearance shoes that fit right
 
Planting flowers in the spring
 
Paper crowns at Burger King
 
Using manners, saying grace
 
Getting pimples on my face
 
Snuggled in bed with my cat
 
Always thinking I'm too fat
 
At the beach collecting shells
 
The way coming home smells
 
Buttons, any color, shape, size
 
Chocolate, a welcome surprise
 
Feeling grass between my toes
 
Having freckles on my nose
 
Burning candles and potpourri
 
Coupons, buy one, get one free
 
Little things, important though
 
For all these, I'll never outgrow
