It was only a little thing, Yet really not so little To see the rush of joy Burst forth and glow From her face. You see, it was done Without regard To the depth of the act Or the purity of motive Or the impact on the beloved. To be able to give With no thought of return Frees the person to receive Without a catch And opens the door To love. It was only a small thing Yet really not so small... It was just a gesture Of love. |
