Every Tiny Little Thing

Life sure seems long and perilous Yet, so quick is the journey Decisions upon decisions, about Every...Tiny... Little...Thing! Meaningless are most, they really are...Or Were they? Sometime. Somewhere. Somehow. Every...Tiny...Little...Thing Counts for something, now! *** It truly is an art! Moving on from the past Letting go of little things, not wondering "if" I had Would my life be better somehow? If now? Or worse... If then? Would I go back and do it all over again?! No way! Not a chance! I'll take my credit, for time served! With the experiences intact, the lessons I've learned My lifetime of memories, well-preserved To continue on this unknown path Hopefully...Undisturbed Because maybe, if I changed one...Tiny...Little...Thing A time, a place...A moment I would be lost somehow, I would lose something... An integral part of me, by creating a different path Putting me on a road I might soon regret...And forget Every...Tiny...Little...Thing I could've had Sometimes; Tiny little things...Take up the most room, in your heart.

Tiny little things do not result in much weight on your shoulders. I just set goals and write poems as they come to me which is usually early in the morning. Your poem appeared on my screen so just read it. Jim Horn

You may think so, but every decision and turn you make creates a different result...people you meet, taking an extra minute to leave...affects every tiny little thing...its not heavy weight...its just the butterfly effect
