Just my views about how people and society are always looking for bigger and better things, when we have so much opportunity in the smallest things.
*note* my first poem ever written without it being for a grade.
The Small Things
by:Bennett Dungan
The small things
The big things
and the in between things
Oh how we can do so much with the small things
and oh how we can let self-indulgence crumble the possibilities of a big thing
Give a thinker a block of wood
Give an average man a sum of money
The thinker will construct a magnificent piece that only the mind can describe
The average man would buy a large, meaningless item for temporary pleasure
The transformed block of wood will last an eternity, physically or figuratively in the mind of millions
While the big thing will fulfill a single man’s “want”
So much can the small things do for us
So much the small things can give to us
Or, create for us.
Oh, the small things.
