Best Little By Little Poems
Above the sea
another ocean
and just as blue
Sailing upwind
is all impossible
But don't give up yet
Little by little I come to you
We' d catch each wave
We'll ride the tide
Little by little,We'll make it right
I don't believe in fairies
but I believe in you
And I know,You know
Little by little you come to me
just the way I do
Together We can make it
One pillow shared by two
Our sailor moon will take us
above the sunset hue
Years robbed away our passion
but could not steal our dream
In our dream all is possible
Our lost wings We'll redeem
With our wings We do wonders
Our freedom makes us whole
We'll let dead stars shine their light
in the dark night of our soul.

Lyric
Little by little the red bricks begin to fall apart
he is getting ready to take the staircase to heaven
she watches from a window the hunch of his back
outside the garden is in disarray but full of dew
Her conscience whispers gently in her youthful ear
this was once the house that raised you girl
She walks over to the porch hammer in hand
and as the sun sets in the sky like a rouge rosette
she works aside green ferns, old as dinosaurs
Assaulted by a leaky roof and an unsteady door
she walks in, "Grandpa ? " he answers with a sigh
then slowly drinks her in, with two electric eyes.

Lyric
When a challenge feels like a hex
won’t even try, it’s too complex
take this approach, it is a chinch
Little by little – inch by inch
First impressions are often wrong
solution found, before too long
the proven way, when in a pinch
Little by little – inch by inch
Complex issue, when broken down
a set of basics is what’s found
take on the task without a flinch
Little by little – inch by inch
There’s never a goal out of reach
if you’ll just practice what I’ve preached
let this concept be one you clinch
Little by little – inch by inch

Sluggish novel expect to covet
life's most precious time regret
for thy treasures revealed little by little
i do i distaste thou seeking whittle
to explore more of hizzoner
and see time a donor
for what lies beneath up ahead
is yet to exploit to stuff my fate
Where thou i look i find i'm late
who to fight and create a debate
for such topic is always but swift
to even be thrift i have to carry and lift
little by little is yet nothing but a gift

Thistles with bristles
Grow then whittle
Little by little
Near and far from quartz crystals
As well as waters with ripples
Where the fish bite and nibble
While the wind whistles
On sunny days and during a drizzle
Thinking about what is beneficial
So that my income can triple
I never once said it would be simple
And always knew there'd be unexpected riddles
Which is why it's better to stay nimble
Then to dwindle and be uncivil
My spirit went through many collisions
Then had risen
More and more driven
Combined with better decisions
Knowledge was given
And reciprocated, with truth and wisdom
But not always did both parties listen
The same could be said for those always stuck in division
An extreme magnetism
Emanating below the world's most powerful mechanisms
And so many other living organisms
Sometimes I wonder if anything I have written
Painted a clear enough description
Underneath skies that are blue and crimson
Everybody seems to believe or not in religion
As well as superstitions
Which is the basic definition
Of an opinion

You dawdle away and I kept waiting...
Until…
My heart feasts a funereal!
I dare not look at the sun, albeit my eyes wet in pang.
My bones melting away, as memories grow dim.
Yet I hear you screaming for eternal affections
Ah! Lately you felt my no show
I fall on my knees, beat my chest
Yet I loosen my grip on you.
Because this is the destiny I count upon.
At some point, I sob and snivel…
Turn around to hold you again, that my aching heart is satisfied.
But now that our love is merely a distant dream
Forget me darling and Kiss me goodbye!!
I dive deep to love you again.
shepherd your twinging heart, oh dear!
For I have learnt to adieu, as...
I bided my time calmly, before I found the nest of another.
My only wish, you live well!
I pray you will learn to adieu little by little bit.

I thought two unknown hearts can be one
Two unknown faces could be familiar
Heap, cumulus, hills of freeze love
Would melt in the hereafter.
Ha! As the day passes, it is eating up all the spaces
Bulbs are burning, texts are fading
Small things are getting expanded
Great things are lost.
It is an easy lull to sleep who want
Who hate to up, need sleeping pills!
We hate to accept simple things
And more hate simplest.
We love messy life, transient love, deep hurt
And dynamic, burning memory.
I promised not to write
Sorry! I can not keep my words.

My hearts flutters when you passed by at me.
Little by little
My hearts gets to know you more.
Little by little
My heart beats fast when I see you.
Little by little
My heart falls in love with you.
Little by little
My heart learned the real truth.
And little by little
Didn't I know that my heart was made to be broken by his.

My heart seems to break every day
and
little by little by little
it's chipping away.
The pain that I feel,
I pretend it's not real,
but
little by little by little
I know I'm falling apart
because of the ache in my heart
but
little by little by little
you pull me close
tell me you love me most
and
little by little by little
I begin to heal.
No longer must I conceal
all the pain I feel
and
little by little by little
you stand by my side
both day and night
drying the tears I cried.
But,
little by little by little
I feel you drifting away
like the rest you won't stay.
So,
little by little by little
my heart seems to break every day
all over again.

Rhyme
Every day I fade away little by little, like a star lost in the vastness of the sky,
Silence becomes my refuge, letting calls vanish into the echoes of time,
I trace winding paths, avoiding encounters like a butterfly hiding from the wind,
And as my steps turn to shadows, I distance myself from familiar lights.
By the time they notice I've dispersed, I'll already be a dream unraveling at dawn,
A forgotten laughter, an ancient melody, a smile hidden in the corners of memories,
Their questions will float like fallen leaves: what was my laughter like? was the smile real?
Or was I just a reflection on the surface of a calm lake, a thought that vanished?
My soul dances on the edge of time, like a grain of sand in the hourglass of eternity,
I wonder if I've left deep marks or was just a breeze passing through their lives,
Who am I in the hearts of those who seek me now, an echo or a guiding beacon?
I retreat into my silent universe, a story written on the night sky, with undying stars.

Little by little I seem to love you more
As each year passes us by
You make me proud to be alive today
To see you grow…
When I first saw you as a baby
I was scared and didn’t know
How or what to do with you
I felt that you would only be a burden
To me as a whole in general
But I couldn’t help but smile at you
And as time passed, I saw that
I have changed and come to
Love you more, even as you continue to grow!
Little by little I seem to love you more
And I can’t seem to get enough
Of it all because you
Make me proud to be a father
Little by little I see you flourish
Before my eyes and I can’t help but
Constantly smile as I’m alive today
To see you grow…

Little by little,
We must all take;
The way to become superior,
In our own little pace.
Little by little,
We should push through our fate,
Untill the time comes,
When we are rewarded for this.
Little by little,
Each step by step,
Would ease our worries,
And build an easy way.
Little by little,
When the hour is high,
We shouldn't make haste,
For all will be alright.

WHY YOU DON'T little
By little dreaming
Why you don't little
By little draining
Into my surface
Who is drying
Little by little
Come my rain
little by little
Like the moon
who
Is shining little by little
Come to me little by little
To read you
little by little
In one kiss
Little by little
And then to write
You
A poem
little by little
And you
To grow
In me
little by little
Look to night is drowning
In the dawn of light
Little by little
And the life is turning back
To life little by little
Come baby make me complete
Little by little
