It is the little things which impress.
Small gestures of your tenderness.
A fleeting touch, a gentle kiss,
these are the things I would miss.
If they were suddenly to cease.
Not the rich treasures you display
to celebrate some special day.
The small things I appreciate
shows of affection from my mate.
These are the things which really please.
I do not yearn for diamond rings
or other useless pretty things.
I am as happy as can be
because you show your love for me
in little ways consistently.
I know your love for me is true
it shows in everything you do.
I feel your love surrounding me
providing the security.
A woman needs to feel at peace.
The love light shining in your eyes
is to me a greater prize.
Than anything that you could buy
to show your love. So do not try
All that I need your love supplies.
