  1. The ant bit hard into the soft, delightful texture of the crumb. He had never tasted anything quite like it! You see, ants aren’t very picky about what they eat. And so this particular ant ate the bread crumb that fell from the diseased old man’s mouth.

  2. Delight filled her like a helium balloon and she felt herself floating away, up above the heads of everyone in the crowd. She could see the heads below and the twinkling stars above, and she thought that here was the place where she could finally be happy.

  3. Delight is a feeling of wonder. I often fell delighted when thinking about great times in my past. It is also a delight to make achievements and goals come true. The last time I felt delighted was when I finally picked out my classes for my first year at college after being at a community school for the past two years.

  4. There are many things to delight in in this world. The simple fact of living should be something to delight in. Each breath is a gift, a wondrously, preposterous gift that we take for granted.

  6. The taste of the apple was clean and crisp. Not too sweet, not too tart. Perfect delight. The sun streamed through the kitchen window and I watched the neighbors’ children play in the street.

  7. Benny’s hand shakes, so I hold it tight. He looks up at me and I see the fear in his eyes.
    “We’re gonna be okay. Just….trust me,” I assure. He nods slowly and then pulls out of my grip. Benny gets up and looks out the window. I can see the bright lights reflecting on his pale skin, and the way his eyes stare intensely at the scene below. I sit back against the wall and study his nervous posture as he sighs tiredly. My heart beats un-evenly, as I think of what will come in the morning. As happy as he pretends to be, they’ll just pry the heaving sorrow out of his soul.
    The same thing they’ve done to me.
    Cutting open the wounds with those stupid words,
    “Tell me more!”
    Benny crawls over to me and rests his head on my shoulder.
    “I love a lot. More then John loves you,” he proclaims childishly.
    “I love you more then John too,” I reply. I have a sudden rush of courage by Benny’s words, and before I stop myself, I kiss him.
    And he didn’t remember that. I ask him about it now, just to see if they made a mistake, but he still answers with,
    “I don’t think I was in class that day!”
    So I forget about the subject and let him finish eating breakfast, or watching The Simpsons.

    And that’s how my life will be like forever until I die.

    Benny wouldn’t have his memory restored,

    My heart wouldn’t adjust the fact that I’ll never be loved,

    And the world has forgotten about us,

    So I’ll just live each day.

    Just like everyone else.

  8. The sun was shining, slowly breaking the grey skin from your face.

  9. It was a delight to see my words in print, to share a moment through my eyes with anyone willing to pause and read. The prose danced across the page evoking emotions, a smile, and an unbidden tear to slide down a cheek.

  10. Who would have thought that meeting you would be the highlight of my year? The
    events were together for, the skeletons that came creeping out, and the memories we created have been the delightful highlight of my freshman year.

  14. Pure joy spread across my face as my little girl came bounding down the stairs. Happiness and excitement flooded her expression as the bundles and heaps of wrapped boxes sat around her. Nothing could every explain her delight for the little things in life.

  18. To the delight of the vampire, his quarry could run. Easy catches were boring. He chased her through the subway station, through a clinic and even a zoo until finally he caught up with her at a police station. There he fanged her and then had a feast on the police on hand.

  19. I was delighted to find a yellow flower by the river. Yet as I stared at it I found that it wasn’t a flower at all but a tiny star that had fallen from the sky. I picked it up and blew on it so it turned into dust. As the dust spread out into the water, the specs flowed down with the current and became…

  21. Delight is when everything is going the way you want it to. It is not necessarily good or bad, but it FEELS good, and that’s what the point of it truly is; if it were good or evil, it wouldn’t feel the way it felt.

  25. I delight in many things, one of which is writing. Delight is a confusing little word, but I find fascination in the fact that it contains the word light. to delight in something, in my opinion, means to find a bright thing about it, and be happy. It means finding joy even when it all seems so bleak you could fall apart at the seams. It’s the little flower you find blooming in a sea of weeds. Delight is the happiness you get from the butterflies in your tummy and the spark in your heart when you hold hands. Delight is the unexpected treasures of everyday life, and the random acts of kindness that affect you. To me, delight is the perfect sunrise, the good news, the rainbows, the laughter, and the lucky penny of life. Delight is all the small things about life that make a person happy.

  28. apple juice. waffles. my dog. presents. old friends. birthdays. found items. unexpected happiness. what makes life bearable.

  29. The parfait is an incredible culmination of all things sticky and sweet. Built to feed eight to ten people and with a pricetag to match many gourmet dinners, it is enormous. A half a pineapple is wedged squarely in the center, with ice cream cones ringing the sides. Toppings of all colors, shapes, and sizes deck the multicolored ice cream scoops. It is monstrous. And it’s all mine.

    I was filled with delight when Kellin Quinn knocked on my door.

  31. The softest touch filled me with delight for it sent spark throughout me. I felt butterflies in the strangest places- from my toes to my kneecaps and my shoulders. I leaned into him; nuzzling my face into his chest I breathed his deep musk and was content for the first time in what felt like an eternity. Nothing mattered but him and me in that moment. I had found love again and it was sweeter than my memories had told me it was. Still, I froze at the thought, it meant that its end was far more bitter than I recalled also. I let the thought pass through me and breathed deeply again with one thought resonating- home.

  33. Find delight in the small things, and the desire for bigger things.

  34. Everybody in a fright, that’s just their delight. So callous and cruel, you would think it out of spite. But upon further examination, there’s no real reason at all. They’ve just got to learn to love before they fall.

  35. Delight,where do I start? Delight is the opposite of terrible I believe. Delight is hard to write about,I need an actual idea.

  36. The dripping of water from a lonely leaf of an oak tree. The child below laughs in delight as the drops perfectly land on his nose. Dripping down, they land on his shoe, creating a ripple of inspiration as his feet glide across the forest floor and he flows with his feet to the rhythm of the chirping birds. Nothing to do no where to be, the boy rejoices until the moon starts to sing.

  37. An ice cream cone on a hot day, starwberry on a waffle cone with that rim around it that you can never get in real life but is ever-present in cartoons. A child’s grin, a squeal of happiness. The white witch, the queen of Turkish delight.

  38. I am delighted to find this website. However, as I sit at the computer to type up an wonderful minute-long story. It begins to dawn on me that I have very slow typing skills, because my hands are so behind my brain in speed.
