Little deeds of kindness,
little words of love,
make our earth an Eden,
like the heaven above.
—Julia Abigail Fletcher Carney
Topics: Kindness
Little drops of water, little grains of sand,
Make the mighty ocean, and the pleasant land:
So the little minutes, humble though they be,
Make the mighty ages of eternity.
Little deeds of kindness, little words of love,
Help to make earth happy, like Heaven above.
—Julia Abigail Fletcher Carney
