It's the little things in life that make it worth living.







It's The Little Things
by Barbara Lynn Terry


The lightening flashed and the thunder roared,
As I sat in my little house just sitting here bored
Out of my mind, and with nothing to do.
So I decided instead I should call you,
Because I need so much to hear your voice,
'Cause listen to you or be bored was not a choice.

The phone rang once, maybe even twice,
To hear your words would be so nice,
And make me at ease from my fright,
Of the raging storm outside.

Everytime I call you, I want to hear you say,
"I love you," and "won't you come to stay,
With me on this very dreadful night?"
Sometimes I swear you lose sight,
Of all that is important in our world,
Because it is the little things I enjoy,
That makes me a very happy girl.

Yes it is the little things that make us happy. But when we can't have them we can just close our eyes and remember cherished memories.
Enjoyed this.

You're right Barbie, it's the little things that are love's treasures. The certain glances, touches, implied words, closeness and sincere "I love You"s. And many other little things that can't be purchased at the gift shop, make our heart's sing. Good poem!

These little things are the most important things when we love someone. To have them call you, to hear them say I love you is a big thing when you love and miss someone.
