Little Things

In trying times

And a world unforgiving

Little things

Make life worth living

Little things like...

A scorching day's cool breeze

A respite under shadowy trees

Birds singing in melodious keys

While gliding above with graceful ease

Little things like...

The aroma of the morning brew

The outside grass adorned with dew

The rising sun's golden hue

Spring flowers blooming anew

Little things like...

The gentle patter on your window pane

The fragrance of the mud in rain;

The sky's canvas a piece of art

Enough to soothe a grieving heart

Little things like...

Basking in the December sun

The tender touch of a loved one

The memory of your first kiss

The carefree days of heavenly bliss

Little things like...

Curling up with a good book

A cup of coffee, a cozy nook

The comfort of a restful sleep

The gift of dreams yours to keep

Why drown in desire

And insatiable greed?

When little things

Are all we need
