Grand Gestures by Tiffany Little


(5 ratings)
Rate this Poem (5 best)

 

I tried to show how much I love you,

But my arms wouldn’t stretch enough,

But they might stretch the whole world over,

And still not measure up.



I tried to show how much I love you,

But there isn’t enough money to buy,

Something as big, and as bold, and as beautiful,

That it could capture all I feel inside.



I tried to show how much I love you,

But there is no deed so grand,

That I could do it everyday,

And make you understand.


I tried to show how much I love you,

With gestures big, fantastic deeds, and money in massive amount.

All the while I did not see, it’s the little things that count.



I try to show how much I love you,

And my arms can stretch to reach right,

Around you when you need a hug,

All I do is squeeze real tight.



I try to show how much I love you,

And there’s just enough money to buy,

A special treat, just now and then,

To get your spirits up again.



I try to show how much I love you,

Any there are deeds enough,

Bits and pieces round the house,

That will make your job less tough.

I need no grand gestures, to show you that I care, You know that when you need me, ill be right there .
