THE LITTLE THINGSA Poem by Barbara LynneThe Little Things Some women want for money And a man with fancy cars A house with all it's trimmings Diamonds sparkling like the stars To have it all means everything After all, what would they say? Keeping up with the “Jones'” They strive for day to day Swimming pools and tennis courts Vacations everywhere These things are just material Not for me, I just don't care I'd rather have the little things The hugs and kisses too The note left on the table Words written “I love you” To wake up in the morning And see you next to me Your smiling face and loving eyes No place I'd rather be These little things are priceless Because they're from the heart Material things will come and go But our love will not depart
