Start Out Small

A tiny seed can grow into a tree Our universe was built with particles A flower's pollinated by a bee The smallest words we have are articles When teaching concepts always start quite small The best advice I ever got in school: Whoever starts out 'big' is sure to fall So I have lived my whole life by that rule... The same is true of love, one starts out small A gesture slight that hints at what may come A glance, a nod, an eyebrow raised is all Flirtations start with just a little crumb Before you fan the flames with all your charm, Don Juan: Be careful there's no lasting harm
