you know what's nice?

© Colleen Hilman
What's nice is a package in the mail that you weren't expecting!  And in the package is a newsy, sweet letter from your beautiful friend who has written the whole thing in Sharpie felts - all twenty four colours - because that's the kind of girl she is and because she knows that's the kind of girl you are, too.  And then underneath the letter there is a jar of honey which just so happens to be your favourite food and it's lemon basil honey which sounds lovelier than most sounds you can think of and it's in a glass jar which is your favourite too because honey is so beautiful when the light shines through and you're not even sure your beautiful friend knows you have a secret dream to one day have a window lined with glass shelves containing assorted honeys in various-sized jars making a honey kaleidoscope in your kitchen.  That's what's nice.
