My friend, Heather, sent me this poem. It matched perfectly where I was so I thought I’d share it. It’s a little longer than 13 lines – but I thought you might forgive me just this once.
Little Things
Little drops of water,
Little grains of sand,
Make the mighty ocean
And the pleasant land.
?
So the little moments,
Humble though they be,
Make the mighty ages
Of Eternity.
?
So the little errors
Lead the soul away
From the paths of virtue
Far in sin to stray.
?
Little deeds of kindness,
Little words of love,
Help to make earth happy,
Like the Heaven above.
?
Happy Thursday!

Oh, Claudia, what a beautiful little poem. Just what I needed — just when I needed it. Thank you!
What a beautiful poem! And a lovely sentiment. Since I’m only 5’2, I especially appreciate it.
This is a beautiful poem, thanks for sharing it.
This poem attracts everybody soul and teach us the impotance of ordinary people,and things but we forget
that even ordinary men,women and things carry equal
importance as extaordinary people and things.You may observe in your daily life that a small part of your vehicle,machine,computer could stop woking if it breaks or removes from them.Extraordinary men belong to ordinary and very poor family background in human history.The life of human society is dead without little farmers,blacksmith,barbers,butchers,
masons,and ordinary workers.
A many prophets belonged to humble profession but gave a beautiful civilization and culture to us.
little errors of us all can lead us to destruction and disaster.A small error of Adam and Eve when they ate the forbidden tree pulled them out from paradise and forced them to lead a labourious life on earth.
It is also true that some little words of love and kindness may bring a pleasant change in men behaviour and can convert this world into a real paradise.
