It's The Little Things

A surprise phone call
a hug from a child
little things
that make us smile

Being there when you say
you will
a little thing
that can sometimes thrill

Giving time
to those without
a little thing
that really counts

Helping hands
for an older friend
little things
on which they depend

Saying grace
over a family meal
a little thing
that can often heal

A single rose
for love
or friendship
a little thing
that means more
than I can mention.
