Nice

Leave a comment

What is your favorite word? – Now there’s a head-scratching question. Good one daily writing prompt.

I thought hard about this one. I was stumbling around with several other choices when it became clear. My favorite word is NICE.

I stepped outside this morning in gym shorts, paused, and said “Nice.” Because it was the perfect temperature and a sunny day.

Just like when I see a beautiful muscle car or Harley and hear it rumble by, I go “Nice.”

Or when I get to the beach and put the blanket down, get the umbrellas set up and chairs unfolded for others. Then I lay down on my towel wiggle my body shape in the sand, settle in listening to the waves, and say quietly “Nice.”

When a waiter sits a plateful of seafood in front of me I always say “nice” to myself and probably out loud also.

As I wake and can move freely without pain and it lasts for the first few hours of the day I start to think “Nice.”

Anytime I see something or someone beautiful I think “nice.”

When all my family is in my home I shake my head, savor the moment and say “Nice.”

Hoping to catch many beautiful sights today. Photo by Mike Hartley
