Little Things

                              E.C.Brewer


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.


Thus our little errors

Lead the soul away.

From the path of virtue.

Off in sin to stray.


Little deeds of kindness.

Little words of love.

Make our earth an Eden.

Like the heaven above.
