Little Things

They are often taken for granted when shadowed by the bigger.
When let alone, they shine in the light, they glow.
If noticed, they can cause change in a life.
These things push looming grey clouds out, making room for light.
These come from small beginnings that turn into something greater, more meaningful.
They are a simple idea, a notion.
Most of all, they are kind gestures that speak without words.
These little things connect us, they form bonds.
They remind us why we care and why we fight for tomorrow.
In our hardest times, we just want little things to make it better.
I've become a greater person for embracing the little things.
