Notes About The Poem

The Little Things

It's always the little things 
                 That mean the most to people
           Holding more value than all the money
            In the bank; more of a treasure than 
      Any material thing one could possibly imagine

        A genuine expression of love to a loved one
            Like a bear hug, a blown kiss from afar
     A simple warm greeting with a strong handshake
       Wishing a stranger happy holidays, an apology
        A reassuring smile, a wink, a good deed done 
             For someone, with no strings attached

           A thoughtful gesture that lets the recipient 
      Know you care, such as a random act of kindness
         A get well soon card to the sick, a recognition
  A pat on the back for a job well done, saying thank you
     A word of encouragement to keep up the good work
        To keep soldiering on when the going gets tough

                        It's always the little things
              That makes all the difference in the world
