The Little Things
The little things, the little things.
Oh how I love the little things,
One applaud,
Sweeter than an audience of cheers.
A dollar bill, found on the ground,
More joyous than fifty-thousand made in a year.
A simple wave,
Awarded from a stranger,
A tiny smile,
Donated from a neighbor.
The little things, the little things.
A grand reward, for little labor.
Oh how I love to see,
A puppy wagging his tail with glee.
More charming, than visiting a zoo,
Awash with lions, elephants and monkeys.
Or a humble bumble bee,
Making friends with a delicate daisy.
More admirable,
Than a tropical rainforest,
Breathing in a beautiful land,
Such as Papua New Guinea.
The little things, the little things.
Don't you just love the little things?
So cherish the peasant,
Pay no mind to the king.
There's more to this journey,
Than diamond rings,
And acquisitive dreams.

Surprisingly I've never read anything you've written before....I really enjoyed reading this...We most often over look little things and look out for the bigger ones...Most treasures lie in the little things...Well done Flora...Would try to read more of your work
Thanks Rose! Yes most treasures usually do. :) Really appreciate the feedback!
This was refreshing! Come on; in a world that wants bigger and better, in a world that has so much but strives for more. . . We can't see what's under our noses we grab for what's just out of reach. . . And miss THE LITTLE THINGS!
Well done Flora-Belle Smith! I look forward to reading more of your poems!
Thank you Gayle. Your words are humbling. :)
