Small things make life worthwhile--
The hug, the pat, the caring smile,
The little flower you give today
Brightens someone's lonely day.
A kind and heartfelt compliment,
A lovely bunch of roses sent,
Makes you feel all warm inside,
Such joy and love it will provide.
The loving acts in daily living
Give to life a richer meaning;
Love strewn about the commonplace
Is light from God's compassionate face.
