Little Things We Do

There was a time you gave a little help to a lost stranger By giving him the right direction where to go One ordinary day a year ago you gave a coin to a beggar It’s an unpayable help you just don’t know The smile you replied to the girl’s grumpy face on the market The sweet hello you said to the lady you just met The kiss you gave to your granny’s crinkled cheeks Are the silent, little gestures of love and kindness The quiet prayer you uttered for only friend The goodnight kiss for your parents before you sleeps The sorry you said because someone was offend Are the good things you’ve done that some people needs The funny joke you tried just to let someone laugh The advice you gave to your troubled half By letting him borrowed your favorite pen You shared life and take away the pain We sometimes don’t see those little things we do That affects others in good way and yet we don’t know The world needs it every day lets continue to do so Let’s create a happy, positive earth for me and you.

We do underestimate the importance of the little things we can do for others that cost us nothing and yet mean so much to them. Good writing style with words well chosen. David from NZ
