The Little Things

The Little Things

A Poem by April Child
"

Someone asked me about the "little things"...

"
 

are

 

the things you do that show

you’re thinking of someone,

know what will make them

smile, feel loved, special.

It’s a look that says

“I understand”,

a touch, a gesture,

putting yourself out,

being connected.

 

Picking daisies and

putting them in an egg cup.

"putting yourself out,
being connected."

That's really what it's all about, and what there really isn't enough of in this world.

I think everyone wants and needs to feel a little bit special from time to time.

I love the gentle feel of this piece, the way the warmth it created seeped through my thoughts and the way a smile came to my lips when I read it. It's very well done.

When it comes to showing you care it is the little things that matter, everyday doing something just to show you are thinking of them... a sweet little poem with very sound advice.
