Life’s little things.

The great things this life does hold
Don’t make our lives bold
Not even gold –
It’s the little things

It’s a tiny flower
A baby’s smile that never turns sour
A little word sincerely spoken
Can lift your spirit high
Like a feather in the sky.

It’s that little dew drop in the morning grass
The warmth in the sunshine
And the splendor in the moonlight.

Money can quench not
Desires that burn us hot
The remedies are all around us
They are all a parcel of God’s creation
And all are free
Free as wind –
Free little things.
