Life's simple things mean so much to me,
they lift one's heart and spirits so abundantly.

The smile of a child can make your spirits soar,
making you spend time trying to induce some more.

A thank you from the recipient of a favor,
it's not what you did but their joy that you savor.

A warm hug as you greet a well loved friend,
knowing this is someone on whom you can depend.

The song of the birds early in the morning light,
give each new day such a aura of pure delight.

Making a gift for another and seeing their obvious glee,
knowing that happiness is caused by me.

A call from a loved one to inquire if you are all right,
knowing we're thought of even though out of sight.

Introducing another to our Savior above,
seeing them accept His grace and love.

Life's simple things yet they mean so very much,
because they bring happiness to everyone they touch.
