The Little Things


A cactus A softball game A riddle A pretty name My friends My family A good book A preacher's homily They bring a smile to my face And warmth into my heart When I see them I almost lose the need for art Daddy's cookies Sister's hugs So much better to focus on Than war and common thugs
