Little Things (Ottava Rima)

by LittleBlackRose   Sep 22, 2006


Do you not know that it are the little things
Like giving a big hug or just a sweet smile
That this are the things that will give people wings
And make them feel happy, even for a while
You can make them believe that they are like kings
Just by give someone a smile ones in a while
So give that smile or that hug and don't be shy
Cause these little things can bright up someone's sky
