You did not stop to wonder why
Just knew my heart was sad.
Many busy in the streets
No time to make me glad.

Too hurried
Too rushed
To make my heart
Calmed and hushed

Many turned their back to me
As you reached for my hand.
Many on the beach
Don't really see the sand.

Too insignificant
Too small
To be that important
All in all

One bought a diamond
But was another made my heart sing.
Little things together
Added up to the really big thing.

One may keep the gemstone
My heart has found its home.
Now as I take your hand
We neither need to roam.

Or fear!
