Small But Not Little



The little things that count,
Warming your very being.

Small events, words, images,
Speaking loudly to your inner soul.

-grassy-green backyards
-affirmation during conflict
-four o'clocks
-aroma of dill
-wag of a tail
-words on a page/note
-just a look/touch
-support without words
-growth of a child
-warmth of a blanket
-sunshine
-familiar voice
-soup
-uncontrollable laughter
-snowflakes
-grasp of a cup
-flow of water
-smell of dirt
-paper and pen
-colors

Larger than life.
