Little things

It’s all about the little things,

The little things

The smallest dreams:

Cups of honey, honey in tea;

Long lost thoughts and

Broken keys.

Keys that unlock the

Smallest dreams dreamt -

Dreams forgotten, days not spent.

The little things,

Like days with friends,

Nights with lovers

Where words are meant.

Yellow flowers, mint tea,

A cinnamon scent;

All are things.

Things like warm hugs,

Warm socks, warm mittens

Warm love - love more,

Passed from hands to hearts

Through hearts to dreams.

Write them down,

The dreams- the smallest of them all,

Put them in boxes.

Take the key but

Don’t turn the lock.

Keep moving forward.

Always remember the past,

Life always keeps going-

Forever too fast.

Buy flowers and honey-

Put it in your tea.

Spend nights with lovers,

Say words you mean.

Love hard love loud,

Dive in headfirst.

It’s the only damn way

To cure your thirst

For dreams of a life

You have not lived.

It’s all about the little things,

They turn your blues away.

Focus on the little things.

It’ll all be okay.
