A Small Word Can Make Things Different


An accent can change a whole statement

A comma can alter the whole meaning

A small word can make things different

And a smile can enhance sightseeing.

 

An apostrophe can emphasize the beauty

Of a place, a noun, a country or a city

An atom can destroy our world, nothing

Is too teensy to destroy a life or a building.

 

The titanic ship was never too big to sink

These days, very few of us are able to think

People elect some leaders for the wrong reason

Leave me alone. Pay, pay, and enjoy your pain.

 

A small vowel can make a humongous difference

No word is too small, too petite, and too innocent

Dot the i; cross the t. Please use your common sense

An accent can naturally change a whole statement.
