Little Things
Dear God, please give to me
A thankful heart for little things -
For sunshine on my kitchen floor
For news the postman brings;
For memories in the making,
Things the children do and say,
That I will smile about, perhaps,
Some future, lonelier day.
Grant me appreciation
Of the small joys that are mine -
The children’s birthday parties,
My honeysuckle vine;
The clean, fresh smell
Of clothes just washed;
The ivy on my wall,
The children’s thrilled delight
To wake and find the first snowfall.
