Little Things



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.


Reverend Dr. Ebenezer Cobham Brewer (1810- 1897)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


Cose piccoline



Le cose piccoline
son pur belle,
chi non credesse a me
guardi le stelle.

Chi non mi crede
guardi il gelsomino:
l'odore è grande
e il fiore piccolino.

(Filastrocca popolare)

It's such a simple and elegant poem, it's somehow hit me right in the heart. I absolutely adore it so much <3.

Thank you for sharing it :3.
