It’s never just the words,
But also what you’re doing
Little things and kindly tasks
Simple caring is all you ask.
For a minute, since we first met
Years have past I won’t regret
Even one short instance
When there was ire
Your actions quenched
My angry fire.
I read each message long or short
And linger there within the port
Of happiness that calms my sea
And I notice
What you mean to me.
