Notice all the frowns and smiles
Every seed that’s planted.
Appreciate every little thing
Don’t take a second for granted.

The wind that blows and the sun that shines
The trees that sway in the breeze.
Appreciate every little thing
Live every day with ease.

Love all your family and your friends
Even the people you don’t know.
Appreciate every little thing
Your heart will surely glow.

Notice all the details of life
As each day is done.
Appreciate every little thing
Before it all is gone.
