Hey guys i started a poem that i want you guys to keep running, just add stanzas with your favorite little things and we might get a really cool poem here What is life but endless nights slow days, Monets, and Christmas lights days when the phone rings and rings what is life but little things? Sneakers baring tiny toes loud clocks, warm socks, and present bows... Broken balsa airplane wings what is life but little things? paper cuts, and broken pinkies, dress ups, mess ups, tangled slinkies... The song a perfect stranger sings what is life but little things? Late night movies, black and white winks, ice rinks, clown night lights… not knowing what tomorrow brings What is life but little things. |

Rumpled bedsheets, children's hugs, husband looking "Santa-smug", crisp winter nights and roaring fire, taking the telephone off the wire... Knowing love, loving to know just what makes our love grow and when you feel it's right to sing, then you know life is but little things... |

Ice cream cones and chocolate faces Dog's stolen things from far off places Little girls in make believe Crystal snowflakes on your sleeve Birhday baloons and pirate ships Double dutch and potatoe chips Cardinal in a holly tree Kevin's lovely poetry Liz |

Pictures hanging on the wall. Mother painted most, or all. Christmas cards upon my desk. Those I really love the best. Photo albumn on a shelf. Took the pictures all myself Tears and memories that it brings. Life is full of little things. |

Graceful swan gliding through water reflecting all her beauty man rests upon her silken wing where he is free from duty The picture paints a maiden too that can't get passed the swan eyes meet eyes and trust is given creating life's oldest phenomenon ------------------ Yesterday is but today's memory and tomorrow is today's dream... |

Castles in a cardboard box spring rains, car lanes, and chicken pox Under the table queens and kings what is life but little things Paper hats and tree branch swords closed eyes, french fries, and ouiji boards Young love complete with frienship rings what is life but little things |

Colored lights on Christmas trees A feather blowing in the breeze Sunday morning churchbell rings What is life but little things Sunlight hitting crested snow Peanut butter with marshmallow First night that the tree frog sings What is life but little things |

Lovers kissing in the dark Footsteps running in the park Licking dog to wash my face Katherine Hepburn's charm and grace Goosebumps when I see the flag Playing hide and seek and tag Hostess Twinkies...Dingalings Life is filled with little things. |

A school girl crush, A teddy bear, oh so plush! Some giggles here and there, A quick game of truth or dare. A set of beautiful butterfly wings, What is life but simple things? |

Night owl's wondrous hooty hoots Snowy crunches under boots The smell of cookies being baked Candles on a birthday cake Animal crackers, baseball bats Jack o lanterns, welcome mats Pigtails donned with yellow bows Lightening bugs and puppet shows |

Hugs and kisses, Special entree dishes, Dreams and wishes, Swinging in a tree swing, What is life but little things? Love and laughter, Happy ever after, Healthy and can't complain, What is life but little things? Clean air to breathe, food to eat, Having socks to warm my feet, Having sight to see everything, What is life but little things? Homemade gifts and cards, Owning a house with a yard, Hot dogs and baseball games, What is life but little things? Friends and family, I have plenty, What joy, that they bring, What is life but little things? |

Eighty points on every ride- A little less of cowboy pride.. Chris Ledoux, with "John Ed sings.." A cowboy's view of little things. To somehow lose just twenty years Make old "arthir" disappear to my steps just add some spring- Youth is such a little thing |

Late night talks with a best friend A broken heart on the mend Driving someone else's car A fun night out with no doubts About what is expected Snuggling by the warm fire With the one your heart desires Seeing a smile light up a childs face And realizing the gift of grace ------------------ Time flies? Say it not so, time stays we go. |

Fancy cars, and limosines Country cooking and french cousine! Star lit nights, in reflected eyes. Love that soars the open skies. These are but a few to name. Of life's little things that make are day. And bring us happiness as they come, And happier yet when shared with someone... |
