Little Things

by lawrence   Feb 29, 2004


Your gifts I may give flowers
But they cannot compare
To the beauty that is you
Your charm and your flare

I might give you diamonds
Or rings made of gold
But pale they are next to you
And the beauty I behold

For I love you dearly
From your head down to your feet
These things that I might give to you
Their looks cannot compete

Even though you are fair
And beautiful to the eye
There is so much more to you
Than the surface, I spy

What makes me love you more each day
Whether I'm near or far
What I love is the complete person
The woman that you are

The way you laugh, the way you cry
The way you are with me
The things you do and what you say
Is more than what I see

The way you can excite me
Or bring me back down to earth
Or your reading me like a little book
Or telling me of my worth

Your kindness and compassion
Your personality
Your sweet little considerations
The little things you do for me

All the things that make the you
The woman I adore
They make you very special
They make me love you more

So little things that you might get
This day as it's always due
Are just very small reflections
Of how much I love you

    Damn good poem man! You certainly know wat your doing. Its great that you pay attention to all the little details man. Cuz to a girl, nothing is trivial. It all matters from the major things you do for her to the little things you described. Awesome!!!
