The Little Things

The Little Things

 

It is in the little things

That make life.

The little things

That make you want to try.

 

The sound of rain

Singing on a tin roof.

A single butterfly

Floating on a breeze, aloof

 

The visit of a wave

Washing a lone shore.

Spying a rainbow in a blue sky

Always plays a chord.

 

A kind word,

A touch of a hand.

Friends who come around,

Or one friend who understands.

 

Life in all its glory,

So much to behold.

Yes, it can be hectic,

But its beauty is ever told.

 

In times hard,

Forget not the blessings

Which are everywhere….

Even in the little things.

I agree dear Melinda.
"In times hard,

Even in the little things."
