Little Things

Little deeds of kindness,

Little words of love,

Help to make earth happy

Like the heaven above.

Little Things

“

by Julia Fletcher Carney

Little drops of water,

Little grains of sand,

Make the mighty ocean

And the pleasant land.

Thus the little minutes,

Humble though they be,

Make the mighty ages

Of eternity.

So our little errors

Lead the soul away

From the path of virtue

Far in sin to stray.

Little deeds of kindness,

Little words of love,

Help to make earth happy

Like the heaven above.

I choose it because it is not very long, and the Internet said it is the top 10 best short poems. But the mainly reason is I love what is saying in the poem. It talks about the little things in our life is informant, because all the big things are combine by many small things. In like it because I like the way the poem explain it topic, it use many examples to show how small things are important and how small things can be great. If there are no little things in the world, then the big things like ocean and land exist. And little things can also have a bug effecting, little things are not only little things, they can be great.
